The Moto shorty looks sweet

thank you much for the kind words

I myself had RR when they first came out and they were good but they weren't great. After a while they started getting loose and keeping them adj was always a pain.

I figured between myself and input from my bros I could come up with a better lever design, hey the GRC's they're not for everyone but then again neither are OEM's, RR, or others.

Shorter levers regardless, have a reduced lever ratio thus causing you to pull harder for the same amount of braking power you had with the OEM's.

I can't control Physics.....dang it!

The shorties were designed more for the 1-finger dirt jumpers who do tricks so the blades aren't in the way.

On DH stuff, unless you have big hands or strong fingers the shorter lever ie: dangerboy, RR, GRC etc always has
less power, period!

Our MotoX's are longer the OEM's for that same principle. Longer levers means higher leverage ratio, thus more power but with less input from your fingers which means less hand FATIGUE!!

Our levers are not designed for the Pimp factor good looks...they're basic black and do the job intended and thats:

INCREASE PERFORMANCE
GREATER POWER and BRAKING CONTROL
IMPROVED COMFORT
IMPROVED FIT
MOTO HOOK

Remember hot rodders,
Chrome don't win races...
Performance does!!

the xt's ones look cool, are they much longer? they look like it

Hey DD,
They're a bit longer then the oe's, 3 fingers wide plus the hook. The added leverage does improve the performance which really wake up the XT/Gremica systems.
Way better braking control with increased power fer sure.
