Is it possible to hang a lever on a horn in-between where a cross top lever and bar-end lever would go? Or is this impossible/dumb idea...? Dobber, would the levers work you show in your post?
Thanks for the great input. I just need to sort this out.
not exactly sure what you're asking. i had a tektro cross lever as a stand alone brake for a while, btu often found that i needed my brake when i was in hairy situations, and those were precisely the situations when i wanted my hands wide on the bars, not near the stem. i switched to a bar end lever (much like the ones you see the in moxfyre's link) and found it to be much more functional.
