The Travel Agent can perform a couple of different tasks; adjusting cable pull or serving as a roller to work around tight frame geometries. For cable pull changes, the Travel Agent makes a short cable pull lever work with along cable pull caliper. This allows you to mix road, mountain and ‘cross brakes and brake levers. Instead of buying new levers or brakes, just install a Travel Agent and you’re good to go! To use our Travel Agent as a friction reducing roller simply route the cable on the outer edge of the wheel and it is smooth sailing for your brakes around tight bends. Allows the use of Short Pull levers (traditionally drop bar levers) with Long Pull brake calipers (traditionally linear pull or mountain pull disc brakes) Compatibility Notes Common Short Pull Components: Drop bar levers, road calipers, traditional cantilever calipers, short arm “mini-v” linear pull calipers, center pull calipers, and road specific disc calipers Common Long Pull Components: Flat bar levers, long arm linear pull calipers, and mountain specific disc calipers Technical Details Increases cable travel at a ratio of 1.9:1 Machined and anodized AL-6061-T6 Available with or without adjusting barrel
