It's some noname thing, I'm not quite sure. I couldn't find MTB-style levers to fit my drop bars (all the levers were too small) so I had to forcefulle "open up" the lever-mount (if that's what it's called?) and use a longer screw.
I didn't know if it'd work so that's why I used the cheapo lever, in case I totally screwed it up.
The good bike-shop lever I have is Tektro.
I seems that it is the problem of short pull brake/long pull lever, since the "symptoms" are the same.
Found this just now (http://www.jensonusa.com/store/product/BL309A02-Tektro+319Ac+Rh+Bmx+Short+Pull+Lever.aspx) and it looks decent enough to have on my bars. I'll see if I can get a hold of it here in Oslo..
