Does anyone know of a method that I can use to slave a pair of V-brakes to one lever?
I need to do this to help my deceleration in Bike Polo. Currently I just grab a handful of r.brake and skid, but I really need to find a better solution.

I wonder if you could find some way to rig a BMX type rotor to run two brakes...

Not sure if it'll pull Vs properly.

whoa! I've never seen that!
I was thinking about finding/builiding a split brake cable.

If that lever is designed for canti's, then get a couple of travel agents and run them. The travel agent is used for 2:1 levers connecting to 1:1 brakes.

got one of those levers in the end. Feels like poop, but does the job.
