Default Crg Levers

Has anyone had problems with the color fadeing on CRG LEVERS ? This is my secound pair of black shortys and they turned a nice crappy brown I called the company and they said to return them and they have had problems with the clear coat they put on top them... This will be my third pair in a year

Is your problem with the good customer service or that you now get new ones for free?

Clear coat? I thought they were just anodized?

yes, my black crg shorties are fading badly..... they see alot of sunlight as i get to ride almost every day . and the side that gets the most sun in the parking lot is the most faded. guess its time to park facing the other way.

It's just God punishing you for getting 'em in color, the natural aluminum color adds 3.2 HP!

I thought I was the only one who noticed that the natural aluminum color added 3.2 HP! Nice to know I am not alone
