No thanks, maybe it is odd Hayes Stoker levers, maybe its my arthritic index fingers but it was tried and it found wanting. Back to the old ways for this old dog, in fact I am thinking of upgrading to 4 finger braking.
One finger braking

Wrong Don, wrong!
Most times I wipe out it's from too much brake, not too little. Look at yesterdays carnage pretty much all those slams were down to too much brake.
One finger braking gives you more power to lift the front of the bike and helps you control the speed without locking up the wheels. Which means more speed and fewer over the handlebar sessions.
It took me a few tries to get the levers set up right. Basically the lever needs to be much further in along the bar then you might think.
