Hey guys so I just received my new single speed

and I want to install my bullhorn handlebars

now I just need to know what type of brake levers do I need. I plan to only have a front brake and this is the one I would like to purchase

and if it matters these are the grips I will be using

I will be having someone at my local bike shop do all the work I just need to make sure I get all the right parts so I don't have to overpay for them. Also feel free to make suggestions on different brake levers for quality purposes.

Usually people run the time trial levers that are inserted into your horns. I used the Cane Creek 200 TT brake levers on my Origin8 bullhorn a couple of years ago. But you can go with a different brand of TT brake levers

I got the Tektro TT levers a while ago and love them.

Wait, grips on bullhorns?

Anyway, I personally prefer the TT brake levers + bullhorns setup that came with my bike, but I also came from a road bike background, so this setup is most familiar to me. But, if you like cross levers more than TT levers, that is perfectly fine.

Either is a valid option.

Holy spacers, Batman!

Profile Design Airwing, Tektro RL726 cross top. I tend to ride 40% on the flats, 40% on the horns, and 20% on the elbows of the bar (where I can reach the brake with my left thumb, which is pretty cool).

cross lever with a hinge.

I like the look of barend levers when it has both f/r brakes... With one brake I would prefer the look of one top leverhttp://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=242317
