• Does anyone have any experience with Sram S700 levers? The right 10 speed lever can be had cheap on cnc-bike (comes together with a caliper), so I was thinking of buying 2 of them and take the gear internals out and use it just as a left brake lever? Is the shape of the hood the same for the left and right lever? If this works it would mean 1x10 hydro together with calipers for 180€!

  • Should be relatively easy to do, removing just the shift paddle is normally really straightforward.

  • Is the shape of the hood the same for the left and right lever?

    Possibly, but the brake levers on SRAM are definitely handed, they cant outwards

    Not seen S700 in the flesh, but all the SRAM levers I've had my hands on are left and right specific.
