Default New Frame help

This is the frame I want to use for my next build it will have 20 inch wheels. I want to run a disc brake in the front and rear and use the tophat from kings sales and services. But the only problem is where to put the clutch lever? Im open to any ideas. The brakes Im using are Hope 160mm hydraulic brakes so i need both levers or a way to move one of the levers to have the clutch lever.
Thanks Brett

Could you use a dual pull brake lever? They are adjustable.

This might work for you. After a little practice I learned to use both at the same time. Your mileage may vary.
