@siglosgab

The brake is an IRD B-49 and the lever is a Soma Cross top.

size of your mercier kilo ?

And how do you say the name of it ? you said like mer say ?

[bebop00]

@RockyShitNigga

I believe it's a 58 or 59cm. I pronounced the name wrong so don't even pay any attention to that part. I put a little annotation in the top left of how to pronounce the name properly.

did the brakes and the lever come with it?

@justindattebayo

They did for me, I got it used. The brake and lever are from Soma. The brake is a IRD B-49 and the lever is a Soma cross top lever.

@bebop00

it is to protect your drop bars from turning all the way back hitting your top tube.

@aznxdope yeah, it is. Some people feel comfortable on smaller bikes but you should have a 54cm at least. I'm just under 6 foot and my road bike is 60cm and I believe my fixed gear is a 58cm. Go to a local bike shop or borrow one from a friend and feel the difference. I guarantee you'll feel more comfortable riding. Also just google (road bike sizing chart) to see exactly what size you should be looking for for your height. Good luck!

Yeah i just bout one like couple of months ago. I'm starting to think its to small for me. Im 5'7 and I got a 50 cm. Is that to small?
