Just for the record - not that I'd recommend them on a build trying to be period correct, or most C&V bikes due to their large size - the Sturmey-Archer BLS92 is, by far, the best looking of any modern upright-bar brake lever I've ever seen.

They're also the best feeling modern brake lever I've ever used. Granted, I have fairly large hands. It's nice to be able to use all four fingers though. Feels very civilized and "the way it should be" on an upright bar bike. There isn't a Tektro in existence that feels like it.





They just have to be non-US market items though. The good stuff never winds up here...
