Hahaha, yeah. That's the compromise for a few grams. Not worth it if you ride your bike hard and frequently. Racing with fragile light parts is probably a different story though. Found a durable replacement and it seems to be a winner so far. Let's just say no more lever QRs' for this rider! :biglaugh:
