Hello again. I'm planning on buying a new brake lever and this one I'm interested in has only one hole for the brake line, whereas my gyro needs two lines. I'm looking on danscomp and I see that they have a 1 to 2 split (#511012) from Odyssey. I'm looking at the options and I see in their options they have the following: Lower bottom cable, medium upper cable, and short upper cable. Which one should I get for just the back brakes? I don't really know what each is, so if someone could maybe explain what you would use each type for? Thanks alot guys

Primo Perverts are outdated; I don't even think that they make the things anymore.

For the upper cables, just get the Dragonfly cables; you can use them in a Tech 77 (or similar lever) with no problems, and they work just as good, if not better, than a traditional 1->2 splitter (ex: SST, Odyssey, Primo).

For the lower cables, get an Odyssey London mod and a pair of regular Odyssey Slic cables, and run each cable to a different brake arm.

You're actually right, my mistake :) I thought you were talking about a homo for a minute, thanks for the replies. I think I'm going to go with the Dirty Harry model and get the dragonfly upper cable. Thanks beerman!
