Hey Pablo, Is there a difference, besides quality of course, between the Chinese dual pull lever and the one you sell? AussieSteve mentions something about a built in pivot for pressure balance (?). In a hard braking situation the front wheel takes around 70% (75%?) of your stopping power as the weight of the bike (and you) pitch forward. If you have the dual pull adjusted equally between front and back then when you hit graval, oil, wet road or such then the front wheel is gonna lock and slide out of control. The ones I've been using I adjust the rear wheel brake to take the most pressure to avoid this problem, being there is no way to do a quick adjust on the fly if a slick situation arises. I learned this the hard way when my front tire started sliding in some sand when cut off by a car.Retro. Cool.
Anybody else have any ideas before I devote myself to turning a soda can into a new barrel cable end?
Thinking of buying one, but it cost a lot to get sent to me![]()
