Badger when I converted to flat bar I used 105 calipers and shimano deore v brake levers as my bike shop recommended. I was ripped apart by the mechanic forum on here being told it's impossible BUT this combo worked perefectly for me. My brother though purchased shimano road specific flar bar levers which these days are very reasonably priced
