FluffyChicken Archivist Retrobike Rider Feedback View Jun 7, 2024 #16 The DiaCompe/DiaTech MX-2 has a sort of look needed with the lever, but im not sure of the overall look, and it is 2 finger. Available at quite a few places, does both brake types. SJS have this back view. Come in colours too.

Tootyred Old School Grand Master Feedback View Jun 7, 2024 #18 I did see those mx2. They seem more like the oldskool shape. I will keep my eyes peeled for options. Worst case will have to slum it with m739 or m950 and just have to live with it!
