Ok, I'll bite. Has anyone put drop levers on these bars? I found a set of Major Taylors at GW that I tried to put levers on and it just didn't work. I normally live on the hoods, so I'd like to keep running the same levers.

Use road drops.

Yeah, yeah, I know. Just asking the question...

Those Eighth Inch drops don't really get along with any kind of brake levers.

These VO Porteur bars are as close to "drop" as I get:

sorry to bring this from the dead, but anyone else using these bars? im considering getting them since i dont know what else to buy from the site to take advantage of the $20 coupon.

You do realize you wont get these bars for 10$ right? You have to spend at least 50$ to use the 20$ off coupon.

I think he is talking about the last Likeathon since it was posted on August.

And it's for sale.
