Control Lever
for Blips

EQUAL's pursuit of grip comfort and operability,
now with wireless shifting capability.

By mounting Blips™ from SRAM eTap AXS directly to the lever,
you can achieve a clean handlebar setup,
enabling both braking and wireless electronic shifting.


Features

Wireless Electronic Shifting with Mechanical Brakes.

Wireless electronic shifting systems have traditionally required hydraulic disc brakes. The Control Lever for Blips enables Blips-based wireless electronic shifting with both mechanical disc brakes and rim brakes.

For those already using the Control Lever Shiftless or Dropper, we also offer a brake lever compatible with the Control Lever for Blips.

What is Blips?

SRAM eTap Wireless Blips™ is a compact satellite shifter that lets you shift wirelessly with just a thumb press. Mount it anywhere on your bars — perfect for TT positions or gravel riding.

The Control Lever for Blips features a dedicated mount built right into the lever body, keeping your cockpit clean while giving you full control of both braking and wireless electronic shifting.

Blips is not included with this product. Please purchase it separately.

Grip That Feels Just Right

No matter how functional a lever is, poor ergonomics can ruin the experience.
We paid close attention to tactile elements that can’t be measured—like how naturally the bracket fits in your hand or how your fingers rest on the lever.
From the very first touch, it feels right in your hand. That’s the comfort we designed for.

Performance Without Compromise

Built with high-rigidity carbon fiber-reinforced plastic, this lever is tough enough for the most demanding races.
Its high pivot position delivers strong braking power with minimal effort.
The three-stage reach adjust feature makes this lever easy to use for riders with smaller hands.
A return spring in the brake lever ensures a positive, reliable lever return.
Its simple design also complements any bike.

Designed to Work as a Pair.

Wireless electronic shifting is designed to be operated with both hands. The Control Lever for Blips performs at its best as a pair, which is why it is sold as a set.

For Dropper Seatpost Users.

We also offer the Control Lever for Blips, Dropper Seatpost. Braking, dropper operation, and wireless electronic shifting — all from a single lever.
