KX450F The build: Next Levers. Just received my new Next Smart Clutch Assembly, Smart Brake Lever, and Rotator Brake Clamp. I am excited to try their new Smart Lever System. The Levers have a high quality fit and finish. These are my first composite levers, and I am very particular on the feel of my levers. i will post a detailed review after I put time on this System.

I've done a season on a set of those. Good levers overall, very very light, I think one of the lightest 'non breakable' lever sets you can get. Nice feel. Survived multiple big crashes and not broken, so safe to say they work.

Downsides for me: The clutch lever assembly is a bitch to disassemble/re assemble, just seems to take a long time and all the small parts take a while to clean up.
The composite material is a little soft, I got a 3mm wide gouge running down the brake lever. I filled it smooth so it isn't too bad but I will replace it at some point.
No bearing in the clutch lever so slightly heavier pull than it could be.
