Hi, I have switched my bars to a cow/bull horn style, i have ordered some bar end shifters but now i'm struggling with brake levers, i would prefer something like this

but as i have shifters in the ends of the bar i can't use them unless i can find some that clamp to the outside of the bar, can anyone recommend some levers even if i've got to put them on tthe bar flats atleast i'd have some stopping power, getting desperate now so any ideas welcome Cheers. SORRY, just noticed, wrong section.

can you not use STI`sconstantly reavalueating the situation and altering the perceived parameters accordingly0

Old fashioned so-called aero levers (pre-STI) would work perfectly. I'm sure one of your older cycling acquaintances might have a perfectly serviceable pair tucked away in a drawer somewhere. Or you could try an old-established bike shop for either old stock or a s/h pair.

BMX style levers near the stem would work too.
