| V-Brakes :: | |
| Shimano XTR | |
|
|
XTR V's are extremely light and have immense braking power. They respond real well and they have the 'parallel pull' feature. The price of them is a down fall though. But if you are wanting to splash out on some decent brakes, get these! Price £39.99 each. |
| Shimano XT | |
|
|
XT V-brakes are good and respond well. They consist of the 'parallel pull system', which is suppose to improve the power and the response of the brake. They are also fairly cheap and are worth the money. Apparently the old '98 version works better! Price £29.99 each. |
| SRAM 9.0 | |
|
|
SRAM 9.0 are another good v-brake to consider getting. As they are strong and light and deliver great controlled stopping performance. SRAM 7.0 are also another good SRAM brake too. Price £29.99 each. |
| Avid ArchRival 5.0 | |
|
|
Avid Arch Rival 5.0 is light and durable. Flex is reduced, due to the booster. They also have 'parallel pull' for ultimate control and super stoppage. Avid Arch Rival 4.0 and Avid Arch Supreme (pricey), are also well recommended too. Price £34.99 each. |
