I wouldn't call that laziness. That probably took some time. Id call it tightness. a used brake lever must have been too much for him to spend.

Back when I was in highschool I built a front brake lever similar to that so my buddy would have brakes on his Auto-X and we could go riding. I took it for a spin and promptly broke it off when I flew off a trail and crashed into a tree.

I agree with dirtcrasher! I have no money why not just give it some afro engineering ;)

The proper term for that nowadays is a "Presidential Solution" ;)
