Technology:

Bend Zone™
Avid knows that falls happen, which is why they've developed the Bend Zone™. In the event of a hard impact, which would cause a conventional brake lever to fail, the Bend Zone™ ensures that the brake lever bends, thus sparing the grip body from major damage. Not only can you avoid the worst without having to brake like Fred Flintstone--you won't even need a new handle body.

Reach Adjust
The fit and ergonomics of the brake lever is a very personal matter. Riders have individual position preferences as well as unique hand sizes and finger lengths. With the reach adjustment, the lever can be easily adjusted - for maximum control with just one finger.
