The Problem Solvers Cable Doubler 2:1 allows two brake levers in different locations to independently operate one brake.

Product Uses:

The Cable Doubler 2:1 was designed for triathletes, tandem riders, and urban cyclists. For the triathlete with time trial bars, the Cable Doubler 2:1 allows the rider to brake while staying positioned on the aero bars. A tandem rider might want to install a second brake lever on the back of a tandem for the stoker. There are numerous urban applications where the Cable Doubler 2:1 might be handy. Some riders will put two brake levers on their fixed gear bikes and run them to one brake.

At Problem Solvers, we keep your options open.

The Cable Doubler 2:1 works only with cable operated brakes: calipers, cantilevers, V-brakes, drums or cable disc brakes. It works with road and mountain applications.
