Abstract
A brake lever mounted to a drop type handle for a bicycle, comprising a main lever substantially parallel to a bent rod section and an auxiliary lever parallel to a straight rod section of the drop type handle. The auxiliary lever is shiftable in pivoted position from the main lever so that the strokes of both levers may cause substantially equal strokes of a control wire and so that the grip dimension, the distance between the auxiliary lever and the straight rod section, may be adjusted.
