Brake lever options

Hi people, as my build continues I now am beginning to look for brake levers, this is where you come in ;)

They must be short pull suitable for canti levers, not built into the gear shifters and have 2 finger levers :roll:

I used to use some odyssey bmx levers so I'm not afraid of modern kit, but I believe shimano made xt 2 finger brakes? Am I right? If so what part number should I be looking for?

Also I have some shimano lx canti's in black, with shimano lx wrote on them, im guessing you can get xt equivalent models? I think there lateish cantilevers.

EDIT: I'll post a picture of mine soon, unless my poor description means something to anybody :oops: :facepalm:

Please help!

Cheers :D
 
Canti (I think)

Shimano levers have by far & away the most durable pivots going imo, I never even contemplate using anything else.
