Brake Levers recommendations

I am looking for new brake levers. I used to have Tektro, but they felt flimsy on grip, though the stopping power was efficient.
The red color Sram caught my eye, but maybe there is something else. I have Shimano brake calipers btw. Thanks!

I use the TRP carbon levers and love them. they are pretty reasonably priced too.

Nice review of levers on TriRig.com.

I bought the Profile Design Full Carbon Levers after reading Nick’s review on TriRig. They are expensive…it cost me $180 but they look amazing http://www.tririg.com/articles.php?id=2012_12_Profile_Design_ABS_Levers

I always liked the Bontrager Race Lite Aero alloy levers. Very simple, effective, aero, and cheap to boot.

I would consider the ease of which you can replace the cables and how easy it is to mount them in your bar (or re tighten them) with out having to pull the cables
