What? Drop bar STI controls only have the rear in the right lever and front in the left. The brake levers don't care which brake (front or rear) they pull. Gear cables can be crossed while traveling from the down tube stops to the BB guide, done all the time and on many of my own (and small) bikes.
So to review. The rear der has to be controlled by the RH STI lever but that side's brake lever could control either brake. The rear cable could attach to the DT stop on either side of the DT, crossing back over if attaching on the left side. Andy
