I could swear that I recall you posted sometime in the recent past that you had switched to a hooded brake lever and pulled your top lever off. Or maybe I imagined that, since I see that you are (still?) using it?
What gives?
Good eye
Still using and loving the hooded lever. I ended up adding a new cross lever after a few weeks though because I found that I like to ride the tops when Im in traffic for better visibility but I still wanted instant access to my brake in emergencies.
I work in downtown chicago but I live in one of the peripheral neighborhoods so I spend a lot of time the windy lakefront bike path where its nice to ride the hoods and get in a good groove but once I get downtown I like to slow down and ride more deliberately.
Dual lever setup is working well for me (despite the lack if fixie points
)
