A guy posted a picture to the MMBA forum some time ago that he'd worked out a kludge to fit hydrolic levers to dirtdrop-style drop bars. It wasn't pretty but he was satisfied with it...

Correct. Full hydraulic systems use proprietary levers, so you're stuck w/ whatcha' got. Mechanical discs are a different story.

I think with a 9d sweep. They are the only choice with hydraulic disc brakes. I have not tried the Mustache bars yet so I don't know how they would be. I prefer drop bars in most cases and would put them on the 29er if they would work with hydraulics, but I would use one of the mountain drops like Midges, the WTB model or the new Salsa Woodchipper. Just wish they came in silver! Query: do hydraulic disks not work with disk-specific drop bar levers like those made by Tektro? I know that mechanical disks do fine with these. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
