Dia-Compe Shot Brake Lever Goes Both Ways

diacomp-urban

This killer little brake lever from Dia-Compe is tailored to fixed-gear bikers who like to add a little safety. You can operate it from either hand, though it won’t work in suicide mode where you grab both sides in a panic. One side pulls the cable and the other shortens the housing. The Dia-Compe Shot Lever will cost about $60, which shouldn’t be too much for those guys paying more than retail for used Pistas on Craigslist.
