v-brakes

Defiant · Jul 4, 2010

For a next project i need some 95/96 v-brakes.
I only used XTR v-brakes myself, what are some good alternatives?

Precision billet (proshift) v-brakes are great looking and work really well.

Avid V's work good.

My control tech ones are good!

TRP's work well, very light too

Oh look, there's a set in the for sale section

... and the older Deore ones are often on sale at silly prices. They work well too.

Shimano M600 circa 96/97, first good V-brake for the masses and well made too

Avid

Avids Ti's or 25's are really light and very powerful, easy to set up, Pauls are fiddly and look well numb, Ct are great but heavy.
