inverse lever brake
anyone have comment on this kind of setup?
my hand always want to get closer to the center, when i get tired on long touring rides, hence, having extra real estate for your hands seems like a great idea.

I've used them on a set of bars with some sweep back. I liked them a lot. I routed the cables under the bar wrap, though.

Yes people have comments on that, in fact people will have comments on most anything. What is your purpose of posting it?

I feel like it'd be a little slower/more difficult to get my fingers around the lever that way, but probably not enough to be prohibitively clumsy.
