Clutch levers...

I run my clutch lever through what use to be my derailer shifter so this is not a problem on my current build, but the left side clutch lever seems like a bad idea because that is the front brake, and 90% of braking is done with the front. What is the alternative to this if I wanted to use a standard clutch lever?

And I side note that I learned at the bike shop the other day get hirer PSI tires to avoid "drifting" a problem I encounter some times because my MT bike tires are on the low PSI side.

Fer,
Some guys have had good luck using a dual pull brake lever. Both front and rear brakes operated by one lever. They are adjustable so you can select the amount of pressure you apply to each brake. I might be wrong but I think Sick Bike Parts sells them...or they used to. If not just google, dual pull brake lever.
