>>1917842>why is it that drop bar brake levers seem weaker than flat bar brake levers?ergonomics, weight related preformance, and necessity
It's inherently more awkward to brake from drop bars, in any position.
Road bikes prioritize lightweight and the brake levers have other purposes as a hand position and as shifters.
And they don't need to be as strong.
