Hi guys, anyone know if you can get a brake handle that fits around this part of the bars?
First time fixed, so would like a brake to start, and really don't like the look of road brakes with hoods.
It’s an aero top, and they don’t make cross top levers for them.
Your best bet is a set of hoods, or to use different bars.

That area of the bars isn’t reinforced the same way the clamping area is on a carbon handlebar so your risk of damaging the handlebar is quite high. Let’s say it is even a good idea to clamp anything to that area you’d need something completely custom so unless you want to pay an arm and a leg for a cnc machined clamp it’s not going to be possible.
