Running only cross levers?

Skippy2309

How can you run a cross top brake without the drop levers?

I am planning on using a single cross lever on my fixed which is getting some nice new drops added soon... I just have no idea on how it would work with out the drop levers as an anchor point...

Any help is much appreciated

I used cross tops on a flat bar set up . Just run the cables as you would a normal brake lever. They worked just fine.

Good luck

I've done that also, while I was waiting for v-brake levers to arrive by post.

The hole in the bracket part of the lever that normally acts as a cable stop for the section of outer from the drop bar levers will hold a road bike pear nipple just fine.
