Frequently Asked Questions
Will this Matchmaker fit my brake levers?
This model is designed for Avid split-clamp (two-bolt) brake levers. If your levers use a hinged clamp or a different mounting standard, the Matchmaker may not fit. Check your lever manufacturer's clamp style before purchasing.
Does it work with non-SRAM shifters or remotes?
The Matchmaker is optimized for SRAM trigger shifters and RockShox PushLoc remotes. Non-SRAM controls may have different mounting footprints and could be incompatible. Verify physical mounting geometry or consult Forest Bikes customer support for help.
Is installation difficult? What tools do I need?
Installation is straightforward and typically requires a set of hex keys and a torque wrench. Remove existing clamps, position the Matchmaker, and tighten the bolts to the manufacturer's recommended torque. Allow time to check cable/hose routing and lever alignment after a test ride.
Will the Matchmaker change lever reach or feel?
The Matchmaker primarily changes the spatial relationship between controls rather than lever mechanics. You may notice easier access or slightly different lever angles because controls are grouped; reach adjustments on the levers themselves remain unchanged.
Can I mount a dropper remote on the Matchmaker?
Some dropper remotes share compatible mounting footprints, but compatibility varies by model. If your dropper uses the same clamp diameter and mounting style as SRAM triggers or RockShox remotes, it may fit. Confirm fit before installation.
Buying Guide
When choosing a Matchmaker-style clamp, first confirm your brake lever uses the two-bolt Avid split-clamp system—this model is built specifically for that clamp style. Match the shifter and remote mounting footprints (SRAM triggers and RockShox PushLoc are supported here) and ensure your handlebar layout has room for a combined clamp. Consider the benefits: fewer clamps means more space for grips, lights, or bar bags, and a single mounting index makes repeatable lever placement simple. If you run mixed-brand controls or non-standard clamp designs, compare mounting dimensions or ask an expert before buying.
