If I could go back in one of my first posts, I had those installed "after market" on my ex-Kuota.

I never felt in control of it on this bike and was afraid without those road brake levers you find on hybrids, etc. In the end, I found them more dangerous and in the way and learned to use the "usual" equipment. Also, they were in the way for any other things I needed on that bar (like my Polar, my iphone stand, etc.). So they were taken out just as quickly as they were put on the bike.

My LBS had them installed for something like 40$. I don't think I took a pic of it. Bummer!

Would I have them installed again? Nope. Much more annoying than helpful. But sometimes, it is a like a crutch and it worked for me for a few outings. Then I did not feel the need for them and wanted to regain the space on my road handle bar.

I rarely drive in the drops as I don't feel stable enough anyway on my bike. I use drops only on trainer! Not that useful. haha But it makes me look like a pro. haha

Oh yeah, I remember something too. What bugged me most was that they were too close together, so I had even less handling and less room to move my hands around. I still had to stretch my fingers to get there comfortably or keep my hands even closer together. So I had less control.
