Dual brake lever install question

[marioaz]

Pyramid. Right side. Front and back cable, inner outer side, which to which? Thanks

It doesn't make any difference which way you hook it up. Which ever way looks like it will work the best on that particular bike. I use the dual brake levers on all my bikes now.

Either way will work just fine. The only question is about function and looks. I wouldn't build a motor bike without a dual brake lever.

If you look closely you will see that one of the pulls engages slightly before the other. I think it is the one closest to the rider. I like to set it up so the rear brake engages first. Good luck!

On mine the cables are one on top of the other. They pull at the same time. I keep front and back brakes real tight, I like to stop when I pull hard on 'em.

Both types pull both cables evenly. Adjust them how you like for your comfort; I'm a m/c guy so I like 60/40% (approx) fr/rear respectively!
