Can you put brake shift levers on a 6 speed (12 speed)?

New to this retro road bike thing haha

Thanks
 
Generally speaking the cogs on a 6 speed freewheel are too far apart but theoretically you could use Campag 8 speed Ergos on a Suntour Ultra 6 speed freewheel with a Campg 8 speed rear mech. Never tried it though.

Mark.
 
i have successfully used campag 8 speed ergos with a full shimano 6 speed back end. It worked faultlessly and I'm a fussy bugger with stuff like that.
