DescriptionThe whole story▼
Born from over a decade of world championship racing development, the Extreme Components GP EVO Carbon Brake Lever Guard in the limited "USA" edition is as much a statement of craft as it is a piece of serious track hardware. Hand-painted to order with the American national flag motif and constructed entirely from monolithic twill-weave carbon fibre, this is a guard that carries real racing heritage — and looks every bit the part.
Key Features
- Monolithic twill-weave carbon fibre construction — no aluminium end cap, no separate metal components, just 35 g of pure high-tensile carbon.
- Exclusive hand-painted "USA" flag finish, produced individually on request — no two guards are identical.
- Wind-tunnel-developed front spoiler geometry reduces turbulence in the throttle grip area and optimises aerodynamics for both bike and rider on long full-throttle straights.
- Smooth, edge-free inner surface allows the hand to release cleanly in a crash — ergonomic safety built into the structure rather than added as an afterthought.
- New angled design accommodates both short and long brake levers; the proven V-shape profile enables rapid handlebar release in extreme situations.
- Supplied with five aluminium adapters covering handlebar inner diameters from 14 mm to 19 mm, plus a black Teflon spacer to fine-tune the guard's distance from the grip.
Heritage and Finish
Extreme Components have been supplying components to World Superbike and World Championship teams for more than ten years. The GP EVO is the distillation of everything learned in that environment: a guard that is lighter, stiffer and aerodynamically cleaner than anything produced before it. The "USA" edition takes that foundation and adds a layer of artisan finishing — each piece is hand-painted to order, making it a limited-production collectible as well as a functional race component. The twill-weave carbon is left with its natural texture, giving the flag artwork a distinctive depth that gloss-painted metal guards simply cannot replicate.
Engineering Detail
The GP EVO does away with the conventional aluminium end cap entirely. The result is a fully monolithic carbon structure that saves weight and eliminates a potential failure point. At just 35 g it is, according to Extreme Components, the lightest brake lever guard currently available. The outer surface features a partially flattened profile engineered for maximum impact resistance, while the inner face is kept completely smooth and free of edges so that a rider's hand can exit without snagging during a get-off. The redesigned front spoiler has been refined in the wind tunnel to clean up airflow around the throttle grip at maximum speed, reducing the aerodynamic penalty that conventional guards impose at high velocity.
