As per title, my daughter is struggling to reach the standard levers. Any recomendations?

Just rang them, No longer available Looks like it will be something from China or HK!Look good value for money
Levers are also fitment to other models.
Have a look on the forums for other bike models that use the same levers - Yamaha 450 of some sort is one. I can't remember which one now.
The specific bike thread on Adventure rider runs to about 700 pages JUST on the X-bikes, challenge and country.

Just ordered some from HK as per the link from mikebrxx, at £22.60 delivered. I'll let you know what they are like when they arrive.
Well they have arrived and look good, they are adjustable for span, length, are hinged so they fold up if you drop the bike and with different anodized colour options to match the colour of your eyes
The brake lever went straight on but the clutch lever bolt hole was only 6mm instead of 8mm, I'll feed that back to the supplier to see what they say. For me it was less hassle to just drill and ream the hole rather than send them back. The clutch lever doesn't quite match the profile of the original where it sits against the mounting bracket as it is machined on a constant radius whereas the original has a flat on the bottom. On the bench it looks a lot but when fitted is not that noticeable. So now they are both fitted and my daughter said that they feel much better than the standard levers. She just needs to road test them now, prevented by thick fog yesterday round here, and set them up to suit her. At the price, £22.60 for the pair Inc p&p, they are worth having as spares for offroading.
Thanks for all your suggestions.

Are these still OK levers to use? Both levers on my XCountry have a lot of up/down play on them so replacements are needed.
