Inverse levers should work. VO currently has Tektro modern-looking ones: http://store.velo-orange.com/index.php/components/brakes/levers/tektro-rx4-1-silver-inverse-brake-levers.html They also have more vintage looking Dia-Compe versions, here: http://store.velo-orange.com/index.php/components/brakes/levers/dia-compe-inverse-brake-levers-22-2.html

Kai- I was thinking about that as I chopped that picture together (where would the cable housings go?). You're correct that MTB levers leave the cable about an inch from the bar. I've never seen a flat-bar lever that has the cable exit along the bar. In order to use interrupters with MTB levers, it looks like you'd have to leave the cable housing exposed, and try to keep it offset from the grip area. Perhaps a spacer/standoff near the interrupter levers?

I've looked, and they don't appear to exist. I think the albastache looks like a great bar, and these ones even better (especially since they take a mountain lever, which I prefer), but with the albastache I'm left wondering if I could reconfigure it to use the mountain levers on the back end of the sweep and also have that forward mounted lever like everyone seems to love on theirs. It just seems that the brake cables would be problematic between the two levers, in the sense that they'd be in the way of otherwise comfy fingers. -Kai Brooklyn NY -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
