I'm pretty sure the SIS levers require the last couple millimeters being "channeled" or whatever like you see in the 2nd link of my post, but maybe I'm wrong. I have a bajillion Huret and Simplex bands and levers to choose from (like, shamefully, a box full, I'm not kidding). I'll go dig them up after dinner and see if it'll work out.
(ps- thanks for the sentiment.)
