Here's the first (that I've ever seen) corner bar with clean integrated shifting and braking. I like the bar but I hated the bird nest cable situation. A proper master cylinder with a banjo fitting hydro hose allowed the vision to come to life.
Stage 2 will be a redisgn of the surly offering. Less drop, longer "hood" portion, touch more bend at the drops position. Working on a steel version that will find its way to a titanium frame builder and really come to life.
Shoot some thoughts. I'm really stoked on this one.

Whoa, that’s so clean! Respect.
How are those brakes? Never seen them before but they look very nice
Does the aggressive bend in the rear DR cable affect shifting at all? Is that what that metal thing is for?
Where integration? There’s obviously two separate clamps for the brake and shifter on that side so idk what you’re talking about.
