Dia-Compe Guidonnet Brake Levers 188-174

You might have seen guidonnet levers on old French cyclotouring and camping bikes. They allow easy braking from the top of thebar, but can't be used from the drops.

They are also ideal for city bars like the VO Bellville andPorteur bars. You can brake from either the traditional grip area orfrom the front of the bar. This allows two safe positions in citytraffic: a low aerodynamic position and a traditional upright position.
