Can I ft Avid Hydraulic Juicys to any other bar than flats?

I have a Boardman Hybrid with Avid Juicy brakes fitted.

I would like to change from my flat bar setup to ideally drops or maybe even aeros (or any other suggestions you may have).

are there any brake levers on the market that will accommodate my existing brakes without having to swap them out completely....?

  • Don't think you can get hydralic drop handle bar brake levers. If anyone knows of any, post please!!

    Magura did them years ago, very much doubt you can still buy them.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Speaking to the magura rep, you cannot get the HS66 levers any more, they do occasionally come up on ebay.

    Depending on how mechanically minded you are, you can bolt them in place like interrupter levers and use the brake cables to actuate the lever from the drops. Or machine a spacer to hold the master cylinders and provide a stop for the cable run and again have them cable actuated.
