(Delrin brake levers?! Yeah, I like playing Russian roulette with my brakes. "Maybe this will be the time the lever snaps... Let me squeeze it and find out!")

That part may not be so bad. I just picked up a pristine Gitane Gran Sport Mixte equivalent that has ivory delrin brake levers and to my delight, found there is a steel lever core. Magnet confirms it runs to the lever end. Don
