I think you're going to have trouble with this. Before the bend and your lever is going to stick out funny. After the bend and your hands will not be in a natural position. Are your wrists deformed?
You gotta post a pic when this is done! |

You could always just use a cross lever if you don't like the look of BMX levers. |
It's tiny.
That's what she said. |

That looks like such a cramped cockpit. whyyy

Install a bar end, and stop being such a slave to fashion. It's how it rides, not how it looks that matters most.
That's what she said. |

I guess I'm confused as to why this is a problem. Would you prefer I ask a question about brake levers on my thread about centering my wheel? I thought this was a community where people could ask questions if they had them. Didn't realize I'd be criticized for being active on the forum. Guess I'll start going elsewhere for help.

Howsabout these guys?
http://www.benscycle.net/index.php?m...ducts_id=11926 If they work they seem like a great solution for brake access in multiple hand positions on bullhorns. my guess is they dont but I'm just throwing it out there. |

That's what I've been thinking this whole stupid thread. If I ever run bullhorns again with brakes, I'll be getting these.

They're called guiddonet levers. They've been around for at least a century.
