I was thinking of putting inverse brake levers on a new old bike I'm working on, mainly because i've never had a bike with this style and thought "why not?"

But is there any reason to use inverse brake levers? Is there some advantage to them on a cruiser handlebar? For ergonomics? Or are they worse for any reason? Or is it simply just for style?

Here are some inverse brake levers for clarification in case they're called something else (c/o zaphod beeblebrox on this thread)
