Noodle, Thumbies, & interruptors
Answering a question on the RBW mailing list...
Top-down view of the current incarnation of my Saluki controls. Nitto Noodle bar, Paul Thumbies, and interruptor levers. It all fits, even with my big paws, and it's very convenient. The Thumbies are clamped up on the Noodle sleeves to save real estate.
I didn't want any black anodized parts on this bike so I removed the anodizing on the interruptor mounts and the Thumbies, polished them a little, and then clearcoated them. Clear anodizing would have been better.
Cabling is Jagwire Switch with V-type brake 90-degree brake noodles used for a neat and tight run off the Thumbies. Cable runs by Dream Cycle. I may do the same for the front brake and eliminate its cable completely.
