Anyone seen reverse levers that pull enough cable for direct-pull
linear brakes aka v-brakes.

They might look something like these :

The only reverse levers I know of can handle cantilevers and calipers
but not vees - am I out of luck?

Thanks.

I am sure that since you knew enough to ask this question that you would know, but just to ask the obvious.

Have you considered something like Travel Agents?

I have something similar (http://www.coloradocyclist.com/images/products/full/canhjabc04.jpg) on my touring bike, and use travel agents (http://www.performancebike.com/product_images/400/00_2988.jpg).

They work great!
