Anyone try the Speedier levers from Crank Bros.?

They look interesting, but something about the design makes me think they'd crack the first time you tried to use them... though they do have a lifetime warranty. Also, it is hard to get a gauge on how big they are... the same/bigger/smaller than regular levers? Would they fit in a normal seat bag? How many do you need? just one? two?

Bigger than normal, just need one, and yes they work well...but then again, so do the basic Park ones.

Thanks for posting this, good to see them in action. Tough I suspect that tire has been 'prepared', or atleast has been put on and taken off a hundred times.

True. But if they work, I appreciate the energy and investment to innovate something that most people don't think too much about.

I appreciate the insight.

I do appreciate their knuckle saving grip.

I liked the when I first saw them but the knuckle gaurd made it useless unless you have small dainty hands. Size wise it takes up the same or a little more space as two park levers and I've stayed happy with the plain ol' blue levers.

Reminds me of the VAR lever, bead jacks can be handy things.
