Be it for mountain bike or whatever as im trying to find one get the maximum throw out of my lever to get the most range of motion out of my hybrid x-metal/oem cats trim system .description,pics ,brands,ect... Thanks

I switched to an Avid mountain bike lever. Has the preload adjustment, a set screw to bring the lever closer to you if needed, but most importantly, you can adjust the throw- so less throw and easier to pull, or maximum amount of throw, or anywhere in between.

I recently ordered a trim lever and throttle lever from them. I just e-mailed them directly at: freerideinnovationsuk@gmail.com They got back to me right away and shipping was pretty fast: 7-10 days. They were super easy to deal with. I haven't finished building my Aquabot so I can't give you a ride report, but I can tell this is a quality piece.

I've seen ones that look like they are bent forward to allow more travel. Something to think about for the diy'ers

IMO, the best style levers are going to be parallel to the bars when you pull trim, many bike levers dont allow for this as they arent designed to bottom out on the bars when you are on the brakes. Bending a mtb lever could work, but you cant beat the matching trim and throttle levers that FRI offer.
