  • Non-aero, standard 23.8mm band clamp
  • Barrel adjusters on lever body

Condition: Good condition. No damage, levers work great. Lots of scuffs on the lever blades. Lots of miles left.


Notes from MyBikeThing: Off a 1950s-60s Olmo teardown where every part came off clean and working — these still pull smooth. Unmarked, but the style matches Balilla/Universal-family levers found on Italian bikes of this era. The lever-mounted barrel adjusters mean brake adjustments without touching the caliper — a feature that took decades to come back into fashion.

Workshop Wisdom: Non-aero levers route housing up and over the bars — measure your housing runs generously and use the barrel adjusters for fine-tuning. A drop of oil at the lever pivot keeps the pull light.

Guarantee: You put in the miles, we put in the work! 30 day Guarantee, rest assured of fit, function and condition 🙂
