Ive tried both brands and they are both kick ***. I have short fingers so they really help me. Not the most descriptive advice but id say you cant lose with either lever.

IIRC, there was a recall on certain lines of CRG levers. My friend has CRG's, and I have Pazzo's, and they both work great.

One thing to remember is to adjust your levers first so that it fits your hand. You do not want to overstretch your hands to reach the levers, and you do not want too much of an angle. The levers should be along the same plane as your arm when in the riding position.

Do they sell individual levers if you want to mix and match the short and long levers? I was under the impression they were sold in pairs.

i have CRGs on my RC51. I never rode with the stockies on the RC, but i love these CRGs. The roll-a-click adjustability is really nice, and i like the curve in them. It's very easy for me to two finger the brake. They're the long versions. I wouldn't mind having the short one on the brake side. I haven't noticed any difference in fatigue. I got stuck in tacoma traffic for three hours last night, and when i got stock on an up hill at 5mph, having to constantly slip the clutch, my left hand took a dump and i had to pull over.
