The unit accomplishes this through two small levers, that when pulled by each brake cable, pushes a plunger in the master cylinder to actuate the hydraulic calipers. Through altering the length of the lever the brake cable pulls, TRP is able to modify and optimize the stopping power of the brake.\"  The whole setup which included this adapter, hoses, and calipers ran $500.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGreat used shape, some cosmetic wear.
