Sounds like a whole lot of trouble just to avoid using drops... why?
How about because that's the set up he wants. And me too for that matter. I think it's a great idea and I was surprised there weren't more products available to make it work. For TT, I guess most riders put the reverse brake levers on the horns, and mount the barcons on the aero extensions. But it seems like a great idea to have both in the same location to shift and be able to brake from one hand position. Who made you the supreme arbiter of what looks right, and how people should want to set up their bikes? BTW, Operator, speaking of idiotic, you wouldn't use the Jtek Aerobrake with a TT lever -- both are brake levers. I'm guessing, just based on the tone of your posts, that there are a thousand things you do every day that I would think were idiotic -- but I also don't figure I've been appointed to make those judgments.
