Also heard that they break pretty bad in an accident, but you are better off buying two sets and just keep the 2nd set as a spare

Fuck that... Makes no sense. OEM levers snap like an 89 year old lady's hip... Do you have an extra set of OEM levers laying around?

that's pretty much what I figured... Levers are mechanically very simple, I never could quite wrap my head around them being worth hundreds of dollars for a pair.

yes. My bike has been knocked over twice by someone's little fucker in a parking lot.

I keep an extra set in my tank bag for that reason.
