The Salt TWIN brake lever may look simple at first, but it’s a well thought-out piece that delivers exactly what you need for a reliable braking feel. The longer, approx. 2.5-finger lever design is no coincidence: it provides increased leverage, allowing for more precise brake modulation while still delivering strong response with less hand effort.
The body is made from 6061-T6 aluminum, a proven material choice for this kind of component. It’s stiff enough to avoid energy loss during braking, yet light enough not to add unnecessary weight to your setup. At around 80 grams, it keeps things light and doesn’t throw off the balance of your bars.
It’s specifically designed for V-brakes, meaning the pull ratio and lever travel are properly matched to this system. In practice, this results in a direct, predictable feel without any sponginess.
A solid choice if you’re looking for a clean, reliable brake lever that doesn’t try to do more than it should, but consistently delivers when it matters.
