SS handle bar question
I’m putting together a SS out of an old Schwinn Traveler and want to know my options regarding brake levers. I want to use a cow horn handle bar, can I use drop bar type levers or is my only choice bar end levers? Any other suggestions?
Cheers

I used drop levers turned so they faced forward under the horns of the bull horns for awhile - you have to have your brakes really tight, because when you pull on them they run into the bar pretty easy. A lot of people seem to like putting a MTB lever up near the stem.
