I don't think the Promenade or Dove bars will work. Has anyone tried the albatross bars or something else?
I just got a set of chromo Nitto North Roads, which take bar end shifters, and therefore, inverse levers too. They are very similar to the Albatross, if not the same. I can't remember the model number, but do a search and you should be able to find it. There are a few different kinds, but the ones I have are steel, have rise and are very wide.
