Ahhh, guessed so, and measured that earlier... about 45mm, so should be fine.
My bars are cut down, and quite narrow, with quite a rise...
Like these but narrower.
The dead flat bit on each side is only 85-90mm. Would you just mount the lever on the flat part, and use a shorter grip on the right hand side of the bar? Only thought is that with the rise, the cable may be too short? (after grips too, wouldn't happen to have any would you?)
Just got my first FG bike, and it's brakeless, and a bit daunting/difficult, so need a failsafe brake ASAP! :P
Thanks,
Matt.
