Probably aren't very expensive. But you can try. ...worst that could happen is it breaks.

Some after market adjustable brake levers havr holes in them to reduce wind drag.
 They csll them the GT versions.
So..you need to slow down if you're going so fast that your levers are bending.....or get the GT versions!
If it's due to something else. ..
Well that's a different story!

The cast metal does not allow for bending, even though it bent in the accident.
Mine also broke when trying to bend it straight. I am gonna go with Metal Fatigue.
