Title: Chrome Levers-source?
Post by: AAAltered on April 19, 2020, 08:44:32 AM
Pulled my levers from the tank today and they are ugly.  I will try the polishing wheel on them, but does anyone have a source for quality chrome levers for the R5/Drum Brake?  I checked out obvious vendors, didn't see anything "great"...
