    I've been enjoying riding my Langster around fixed for the past month or so and feel its time to go front-brake-only. At the moment almost everything on the bike is stock, including okay-ish Tektro brakes fitted on the drops. I've looked at some levers on Wiggle but it's a bit unclear whether they'd suit my bike etc.

    Does anyone have any recommendations, or have done something similar and have any advice? I'm just looking for a solid but inconspicuous front brake, to use on the top bar.

    On another note I'm also interested in going for a set of aero/bullhorn handlebars, as don't really make use of the drops, if anyone is up for selling/swapping!

    Cheers!

    I have some of these on a set of them. Not selling, but happy with.

    I've been using the Charge bullhorns and Cane Creek 200TT levers for a wee while. Quite liked them actually! They are scratched to buggary, nobody would want to buy them.

    Hated using brakes on the top bar, didn't feel stable when trying to stop at a fair pelt.
