The stock brake levers seem to break pretty easy. I have these in stock now. $105.99

Yes a must have if your going to a billet lever as the material gets too cold while riding and your finger sticks to it.

No was being dead serious lol They look awesome and great idea as the stock ones do break easily but having your finger stick to them while riding is no fun either

It’s pretty easy to rig up a heating element for them though I might grab one from you do you have any RAW ones

Honestly I am running a billet lever on my alpha this year and have never had any issues with anything sticking to it or freezing up once and also had a billet on my 14 with no issues either . I think for the guys who want to run one , you shouldnt worry about freezing or sticking.

Broke my Alpha brake lever on a pine cone. Had the billet lever last weekend and worked great. Good to pack a spare lever if your still running the stock one.

I'm worried about the master cylinder now that i have a billet. I have seen a couple of those broken.

Yes the on the 2020's they have a notch in the brake lever to make it more sacrificial and not break the mount on the master. Also it sounds like the masters are back ordered.

Serious though! Where have you sourced a heating element from? I do need extra heat! My current thumb warmer does nothing!

Any Cat thumb heating element will work, tie it into the thumb warmer.
