Here's Plumberroy's original post...

Brake levers helpI have an old Univega mountain bike. I put the drop bars on it from my Surly Steamroller the steamroller got a butterfly bar. Along with the brake levers on it . Steamroller was bought second hand. The brake levers a have seem like they aren't able to apply as much force to the mountain bike brakes as the original brake levers . I am looking for a set of budget levers to give me more braking power. This bike has road tires and bar in shifter it's a project that I probably have too much in now . I like the old bike and I am trying to get back to riding after foot issues have taken me off my bikes for 6 years"

i was responding to your missed GUESSES (multiple) in an attempt to prevent anyone else from making the same mistakes you cling to.
