Does anyone know if you can buy the levers 'english style' for deore brakes from rose (have a discount to use)

https://www.rosebikes.co.uk/article/shimano-deore-br-t615-rear-wheel-disc-brake/aid:670600

· brake lever: BL-T615 right
· brake caliper: BR-T615 post mount
· cable length: 1700 mm (can be cut to length)
· brake hose: SM-BH59

These would be ideal but they list the lever as 'right' so presumably would need to buy a left and longer hose etc.

Failing that any idea where i can go for a sub £40 rear brake for a freeride bike ready to ride

Undo hoses, swap to other side, top up fluid.

And you don't usually have to top up the fluid...

Are deore brakes flip flop, like formula T1's in as much as they will work either side up, or is the clamp different?
