    I have been using them for a few years without problems.

    I suspect they're the same lever otherwise sold as One-2-3 and half-a-dozen other "in-house" brands. In which case, they're fine - I have (I think) 4 sets, and they all work well. Cheapest weight saving you will ever make.

    I bought some. They are flawed as the cam piece on the lever end is made of soft plastic and it wears away through repeated opening and closing. Because of that i wouldn't recommend them. The clamping force wasn't very satisfactory either. Not that skewers need to be super tight but they felt abit flimsy and never truly secure. But they didn't come undone. Skewers with a metal cam will last alot longer.

    3 pairs used on 3 different bikes for years and have had absolutely no problems at all - well recommended.

    In fact, I'm about to buy another couple of pairs over the next couple of weeks.
