Hello all,

I recently saw a front brake lever on a bike for sale on ebay
and went to save the pic to put on here but can't find it now ?

The lever was a dual pivot (?) one lever was 3 finger the other was 2.
It was positioned close to the stem and was running to a shimano 105
front brake. The level clamp was boxy in appearance-
ANy ideas?????

Thanks

It was probably a Dia Compe Shot Lever.

quite likely, and rubbish at that, not worth going for really (and expensive to boot).

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
