I have been told off for putting my rear lever on the right on my powelite
that's great logic Alex, I'd never thought of it like that
It's always felt right to me having the rear brake on the left even when only ever using just the one so that's where I have it
get rid of the brake and jam ya foot in like 'da yoot'
Right was the way we raced in the day. I guess it stems from most people being predominanty right handed and with only one brake it would make sense to have the two together. Additionally, in the US the standard bike shop set up is right rear, left front. The opposite of the UK.
I've always set up my riders and race bike ,,the proper way the UK way ,,,left hand rear jBut I have occasionally set up show bikes with a right hand rear , only if it's been a USA build . Do what suits you but bear in mind Rear brakes with right hand levers is for gay boys
im left handed but wank with the right
