Bob is incredible and it's great to see him get his own video, great job Vital

Was just looking at ARC lever's easy decision now. Thanks, Vital MX do more of these!

I didnt want him to stop talking

Bob you’re the best. THE INVENTOR of the folding lever.

At first I was like wow hes one of the types that talks a lot, but as the video went on and he stayed on topic and kept us all interested I started to not want him to stop talking 😂. You can truly tell he is passionate about what he does.

Geez...what an incredible mind. This man is the kevin Cameron of levers. When he explains ergonomics, it's just fascinating yet easy to understand. Absolutely a national treasure of knowledge. I hope he has a son or daughter he is training. His knowledge should never be lost. Great video sir. Thank you sharing.

That was pretty damn cool. Heading over to ARC now to take a look at their products.

I love nerding out on the little details.

My first ARC levers were on my 04 YZ, never had to replace a lever since. The stock lever was around $70, broke it on my first crash on the bike. Since then ARC on all my bikes and some very heavy get offs, no broken levers.

He is a very cool guy, glad this is out!

Thank you both for taking the time to do this video. Super helpful information

Love to see Bob’s latest! Always such high quality innovative products!

That was a great video. Thanks for letting Bob talk and not interrupting him like others would do. I met Bob years ago at Interbike when he was producing "Feather" road bike rim brakes. Such cool stuff.

Really happy to hear an explanation of the technical side of things that we as riders feel but are often not in the position to change/fix

I think I get just as excited about these levers

I am super excited for this

Great video, love the technical in depth videos!

Awsome video thanks! Always loved the look of those arc levers. He makes some nice looking parts especially that new hydraulic peice

Wow, great job!

Awesome video! He obviously knows his stuff and is why im running ARC's on all of my bike's,

I could watch this tech stuff all day

absolute legend

Awesome video. Always wondered how much effort went into levers and sweep and all that. I know it’s not simple and amazing he approached The Man. More videos like this please!

What an incredible video and story! Bob is doing things right

super interesting vid and it really opens eyes on all the little things that make a big difference in feel for pro riders

amazing! congratulations!

The amount of info is amazing

I love bobhe and i talked for about an hr at indy sx a couple years back he showed me the master cylinder i got to hold it and play with it. And also he let me tinker with the memlon lever. At the time he was trying to figure out what to name the “flip chip” insert. The entire time i felt like i was talking with a genious. His mind is just always working

Awesome bit thanks👍

I will get me some for sure amazing tech on a lever cool

wow, I didn't know I needed these until I watched this video

Yeah... but as I search for it 2/11/22 I can't find. So pretty worthless 😢

Incredible

Finally a guy that knows their shit. Love technical dudes like that!!

Those arc master cylinders with the new guard look so factory im surprised the public will be able to buy them.🔥💪🏻

Still waiting none available

Very cool

This was some genius engineering on the adjustability for these cylinders. My question is that who's gonna make the brake lines for those if you install these on a bike that has banjo bolts for example

I bought an ARC clutch lever a year ago. My wife got off her small bike, rode my bike for a min. Tried to stop, dropped the bike. Bent the new unbreakable lever on the first day. But they are really good products.

Now I know why they all run arc. He is awesome

Awesome video!! We have installed these levers on a Suzuki RM65 and A Beta EVO 80 trials bike!! Perfect fit and made in the USA!!!!! Thank you for sharing!! This type of video has inspired my family to start a KZread channel and Moto Trials Team!! What started as a pre diabetic father trying to find a good way to exercise, has turned into something completely different!! Join my 3 sons, my wife, and I as we embark on our journey!! follow our progress during our 1st season in 2021!!! Official team video release coming 11/2020!!!!

Would love to have the clutch adjustments pull/ratio, and same for the front brake as well

Mind is blown

Amazing now I know why Professional racer are so picky on their levers and the ratio of the brakes and clutch lever so much adjustment that you can do when you have these products

Also notice how pros never use shorty levers ? Take notes 📝

Looks sick, now if you can slim up that rubber guard to make it a little more form fitting like the W.C. guards, and keep the price around the $150-ish per side range... we might be cookin

Are these available yet? Desperate for a front brake and clutch master cylinder for my enduro bike. In the uk

Awesome!!! Been using ARC levers for years, never broke or had any issues with them. Will the master cylinders be better than the Brembo in KTM?

Engineering at its best. Great products.

Wonder if one could get some of the new stuff for a 21 kx250.

Bob Barnett of ARC and Bob Morales of ASV should of stuck out together as a team they would of owned the aftermarket motorcycle business. One a machining -tech genius and the other a great marketer-rider

looks amazing, but when the hell are these going to be available? says a 2-3 month eta in the video....but i've been 🤤🤤 over this proper trick kit for the last 3yrs!

This dude is smart who would of thought so much desighn work goes into a lever

How would you move the pivot on the clutch so it doesn’t hit your finger?! Have that exact problem super annoying

So are these ever gonna become available for purchase??

Is there an arc hydraulic ? You put it in thumbnail but i can’t find it online

Someone that actually know what they’re talking about and doesn’t have to say “uhhh” every other word

what happened to the rotating clamp ? How many times have you seen a rider beating on the lever assembly to try to get it back into the proper position after a crash ?

Seems like a great guy. It is much better for him if he sells each team a drawer full of 100 dollar levers rather than selling them one lever and a bunch of 2 dollar inserts.

With 25 years at the MX track I have yet to see Hot front rotors after a race. Rear yes. Even pros rarely make a front rotor Hot.

That guy is fucking, AWESOME

genius

I was wondering why no one makes a universal front master cylinder or clutch hydrolic conversion

Why are all the levers so long if I try to one finger them they’d hit my other fingers, why don’t they have hydraulic spring assisted one finger clutches that mimic the shape mountain bikes have with thier levers, the clake one light clutch lever is the best clutch lever design out there too bad it’s super expensive

I totally agree. I cut the knobs off and tweak the end a bit. Then I have a cust 2 finger lever

Imagine if the factories let him loose to fix anything else on their bikes. Suspension in general could use a guy like this. Each unit would be very expensive most likely

Man this is good ol American old school engineering! Do it better and make it last.

The front master cylinder on late model Yamahas is garbage. If this ARC master goes into production, thank you, we need it.

For guys that only use one finger to pull why can't the levers be small like mountain bike levers? They would be light, harder to break, less material etc.

Wow no idea these pro guys are so picky over levers lol

The vital host has a very strange attitude, obviously doesn't want to be there.

Too many brands called arc. Way too many

Notice pros rarely use those goofy short levers. Don’t fall for the hype people no pro is using shorty levers lmao
