Some commiserations to wrap up...
Bought these levers from Spiegler December 2025.... I live too close to them, these were on display..(me sucker)

At the time of course i am waaay far from anywhere completing the refresh.
So only lately did I install the things....
And well...dammit... you need NBA basketball players hands for the adjustment to be functional, for me, I have to leave it at (1).
The tab that actuates the brake and clutch switch are not in the correct spot, too much material... so the switches dont come on.
I spent a stupid 2 hours sanding on the top of the tab to sneak the tab to be in the "sweet spot" so the damn switches would work correctly...
--sand a bit, test, repeat.. .bleah!
Recommendation -- -avoid!
