What a great idea, I hope you post a picture I have some Albastache bars 
sitting around and I've had a mind to mount them on something...

[RBW] Re: Bar-end brake levers on Albastache?

[Jeremy Tavan]

I use and love bar-end brake levers on my albastache-cockpit commuter bike. 
For shifting it has a shortened-and-rubber-capped Silver shifter on a 
thumbie on the right side. On the curves, tandem stoker knobs provide 
another grip location which I find I basically never use, so I'm thinking 
about removing them next time I'm working on that bike. But the levers are 
very convenient, and I can brake with them from all the various positions 
around the bars. Recommended.

[RBW] Re: New(-to-me) Quickbeam

[iamkeith]

Wait, did you say XC pro?!  If I'm not mistaken, those are self energizing 
which licensed the pederson technology - which means that  they are front and 
rear specific and, if you accidentally mix things up, they wont work well.  
(I've also heard it could be dangerous by causing them to lock up, but that 
might be an urban myth for all I know.)  I'd look for F markings to make sure 
you haven't mis-matched halves or bought two "front" sets or something, and 
then search mtbr using "pederson" or "self energizing" or "xc pro canti setup 
help."  You'll probably find what you need.  Seems like they were a bit of an 
acquired taste, but well built.

Yup, Garth's right, my body has hooked on all kinds of stuff over the years. 
Run the bar enders with confidence, I successfully used them as I suggested, 
with interrupters up front. As long as there's no shifters to worry about the 
bars won't be so busy as to be annoying, and so very practical! 
Too many levers?...

I have used Compass ( Grand Bois, also ) for years. When the rim

really difficult to mount when new. I found out that it's really important 
to use a very thin rim tape. Just a thought.

[RBW] Re: Bar-end brake levers on Albastache?

[Garth]

Bar end brake levers are great for bars such as both Albas and the swept 
back(non drop) ones .  Easily activated with just a pinkie and/or the next 
finger. I find it more easily accessed too , I can't put it into words 
it'll just be apparent as you use them.   

Kai, I hear that often by those that have never used them.  I've gone 
through some brush and frankly I can't see it happening even if I tried. If 
you are running THAT close into really knarly stuff, you could be brought 
down regardless of the lever, not necessarily the lever.  If we wanna play 
the "anythings possible angle", gotta play it all the way for every "part" 
including the rider !

[RBW] Bar-end brake levers on Albastache?

[Kainalu V.]

The only thing that makes me nervous about reverse brake levers is the horrid 
bushwacking hook where the lever acts to hook a branch rather than deflect it, 
but if you don't find yourself on tightly shrubbed trails, I think there is no 
better lever. And if you pair them with interrupter levers way out front you'd 
be giving yourself a quick brake option at any point along that sweet 
albastache curve.

[RBW] Bar-end brake levers on Albastache?

['Deacon Patrick' via RBW Owners Bunch]

Tully, I’ve not run bar end brake levers on the New Moustache (aka Albastache), 
but for years I ran bar end shifters on the Hunqapillar with new moustache 
bars. If your question is about room, you should be just fine. Now my 
Hunqapillar is the Hunqabeam, so the gear shifter is the engine with an allan 
wrench. Grin.

With abandon,
Patrick

I plan to put Albastache bars on my Quickbeam, and realized that levers

 should 
preserve more hand positions while keeping the brakes accessible from the 
wide, short-reach position.

[RBW] Re: New(-to-me) Quickbeam

[Tully Lanter]

Thanks, all, for the brake tips. The mounts do have three holes, but this 
particular model (Suntour XC Pro) uses an internal spring. Haven't opened 
it up yet, but should be simple enough, based on this explanation 
. 
There's more cable drag than I'd like for the rear (probably my own fault!) 
so I haven't ruled that out, either.

Meanwhile, the front feels *excellent *and is already making me a fan of 
canti's!

Philip - The other neat thing about the PDW mounts, as you might already 
know, is that they can break away. Quite reassuring on wooded trails!
