Like the title says, I'm building up my CX bike 1x10 and need a dummy brake shifter to go with my Shimano 5700 shifter (black).

Anyone know of a combo that will have a similar look and feel?

Why not a left Shimano 5700 lever?

Might find a toasted LH 5700 lever at a LBS. We kept them.

Thanks OP, never thought of using a broken LH 5700. Got one lying around?

No. Sold the shop but call around. I kept them for small parts.
