I recently swapped some narrow riser bars for some Charge Bowl track bars, and for some reason, every now and then I reach to use brakes like the ones in the pic above... when in fact I have a single dirty harry lever near the stem.
Luckily this hasn't got me into too much bother yet.
Have I tapped into the ancient collective cycling psyche, making me have this odd impulse??
Or do I just need to focus more when I'm riding?
I have never used drop bars before, so this isn't some weird muscle memory thing.
