    I'm also interested to hear people's thoughts on the drum brake operation as the tandem I collected is set up with stoker operation and I'm not sure I like it.

  • At the front of my old Grubb tandem I’ve got two levers controlled by my left hand- ones the drum brake and the other the rear rim brake. Works ok.
    However I think perhaps this is only possible due to the smaller brake levers you get on prewar machines- which are basically a bit like modern flat bar levers I guess. Wouldn’t work with modern drop levers.
