my question is on your emmons you played
on that video it looked to me like you may have had some knee lever extensions on your knee levers

Hi, Mike!

I always thought that Tommy had simply put white tape on his levers to help their visibility for the filming. I could be wrong, though.

Happy New Year!

Some push pulls were built with longer than standard length knee levers.

The levers arn't long. Tommy just has short legs. Razz No as Mike wrote. Longer knee lever handles have been an Emmons option for many years.

Hi Mike,
The knee levers on that old Emmons were factory originals ..and Roger was correct. The director of the video applied white tape for a detailed camera and audience view. Apparently, it worked! Smile
My best,
