what brake levers for a 79 build

(1/3) > >>

eloopnai:
starting a 79 build but unsure what brake levers obviously dia compe 2,3,4,5, etc all too new for it  was there any before that mx 122 ? or they later still
shimano tourney maybe ?    ive noticed most were pre bent levers in them days  haro plastic 2 lever would do i think but out my price range  :-[
 ive searched around but unable to work it out  so need a clued up radster to point me in the right direction please  :daumenhoch:

Rodgy1970:
I think tourney are possibly 1980 on.

DC straights are definitely ok as I have a set that came with an 890 caliper dated 1979.

kungfunky:
Yup DC straights are ok as are the pre bend and double bend, the haro plastic ones were from 81/2 I think, the erly plastic ones which are similar are the Hare type. Weinmann also did some nice ones from around that year.

what colour you after as I have plenty of 70's levers pal  :daumenhoch:

Spen69:
There speaks the master, Ashley "did someone say 70's build" Kungfunky ;-D

Yep, what Ash said bud. Long time since you were building mate, what's in the pipeline? Super, Team or plain old vanilla Goose?

Peter J:
If you want uber cool and rare as Spen not haggling over prices......................................Team Products levers  :coolsmiley:
