[Closed] Bodging Hydros onto drops

oldgit · 2011-04-12T17:06:52Z

Done some highly scientific calculations and have come to the conclusion that normal hydro levers would work 'okay' with a Midge type bar. I've been tinkering with a broken Deore hydro lever and the dog leg in the actual lever is perfectly within reach. And these ones in particular have an almost hood like body. But and it's a big but, the clamp is too small. So the only way they'd fit perfectly would be to machine the clamp out. I've clamped the broken one on (albeit rather badly) but it works and the aesthetics aren't too bad. So am I over looking any potential pitfulls. ?
