I picked up these Freedom Coast replacement lever blades mainly to improve ergonomics compared to the stock SRAM levers, and the difference was noticeable right away. The finger position feels much more natural, especially during longer rides and technical sections where modulation matters most.
The lever shape gives better control and confidence under braking, and overall comfort at the cockpit is a big improvement. Installation was straightforward, and once adjusted, the feel at the lever is excellent.
On top of that, the looks are outstanding. They really upgrade the appearance of the bike, and the machining quality and materials feel premium and durable.
Overall, this is a great upgrade if you’re running SRAM brakes and want better ergonomics and lever feel. Very satisfied with the purchase.
