I recently installed Shimano Mini-Vee brakes on an older tandem with drop bars and road levers . They were difficult to adjust . I tried two different levers without much improvement. I measured the cable pull and discovered pulls of 15mm and less. I measured the pull of a set of Gran Compes on another machine and found 20mm. I ordered and installed a set of Gran Compes and the problem was solved.
Got a second hand second-hand Royal H Cycles randonneur build. Fit the aesthetic perfectly and preforms well!
These brake levers are exactly what I needed to complete the rebuild of my 1973 Nishiki Competition. The original Dia-Compe levers on the bike had “safety” levers I can do without, and the hoods were in very bad shape. The new levers are very high quality and look great!
I was looking for a set of levers to use with my 720 brakes and these were the only quality alloy levers I could find. I was not disappointed, they fit my wide hands and provide the adjustability that I needed to remove a wheel on my Campeur. I use for short trips and the occasional commute. Quality construction and finish.
Very good lever for the price-recommended.
Pretty but not as comfortable as my brifters. Will take some getting used to but they work great. Love having a barrel adjuster on the lever.
