Honestly, I accidentally ordered some inline levers and didn't notice until they arrived, so we just went with it... They are intended to be used as additional levers for the horizontal part of the bar when running traditional drop bar levers:



The cable ends didn't fit nicely in the cut-outs at the back of the levers (since they're intended for cable housings/ferrules), so we ran them in reverse to stop them from jiggling around. Looks a little awkward, but they work fine. Probably wouldn't do it again though!
