  Thanks! It was a beautiful Day, chilly starting out at 24 degrees at the house, the ride home is going to start out in the low 40s.

  Alan,

  Can you tell me what brake levers you have on the LHT? I’ve probably looked at 100 pictures on your website trying to figure it but I’m breaking down and asking the question directly!

  Thanks in advance,

  Jeff

  It was cold here, but not that cold!

  Be safe and enjoy…

  Hi Jeff,

  I’m sorry to say, those are some very cool, but long discontinued “Real” brand levers. They’re machined from bar stock, beautifully finished, and totally rigid. Unfortunately, it seems they’re almost impossible to find anymore. From what I’ve seen, the Paul “Love Lever” comes closest to matching the construction quality and size/shape.

  I hope that helps!
  Alan

  My commute yesterday was a 240 mile drive to a 6 hour project meeting, followed by a 240 mile drive home. I couldn’t wait to get on my bike this morning!

  @Alan-
  Thanks! Weather is supposed to be nice – for November in the northeast, at least – so lots of bike time planned.
