I can confirm that those are the Paul levers with two pivot positions that
can be set for long-pull brakes. Both pictures show them in the short pull
setting, the lower hole would be used for long pull. The pivots are secured
with little c-clips that allow removal and repositioning.

I never owned a pair, but as I recall they had a dual pivot design that
would accommodate both short- and long-reach brakes. I actually wrote Paul
directly and asked whether he had any kicking around, or would consider
making them again. The answer was "no" to both questions, so the used
Will the Paul reverse levers work with linear-pull/v-brakes?

If those are long pull (for standard caliper brakes) they won't work
without a travel agent added to the V-brake. I use regular MTB levers with
interrupter levers on my Hunq and had to add the travel agent when I went
to V brakes. The travel agent is a PITA to set up, works fine, looks a

in my parts stash) don’t work with V-brakes though. Paul used
