Hello All ,
I thought I would post these pics. My original intention was to mount the brakes on the bar ends and then try and get the gear change near enough so that all could operate from the bar ends , I tend to ride with hands on the bar ends at all times, this is bit of a pain in the arse on my hack bike as the brakes are not good enough to be operated with my finger tips and I cannot mount them on the bars ends as gear change and brakes are in one piece. I thought the cable lengths may be a problem on my Revolution courier if I mounted the brakes on the bars, this was the case so I thought I would try it as it is in the pics. The gears can be operated just by a twist of the wrist without taking my hands off the bars. As you can see I had to leave the grip off the right bar in order to get the gear change near enough. All I need now are some mudguards !
