rideing ridic Posted January 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 do the deng brakes work any better than the 05 :s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve@banbury-trials Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 deng brakes in theory should be better than maggies but i've heard alot of bad things about the leaking and the voided warrinty if you run cnc'd brake backing.back to topic,vees tend to have more modulation than maggies so they are going to be better suited to the front,though some riders like their front maggies.tarty bikes and chainreactioncycles both sell good vee's and levers ,to make a decision i would search the forum to find out what others are using have you considered a front disk brake?disc brake usually perform well over a greater spectrum of conditions than rims brakes,for example 2inch deep mud,a good disc brake is a avid bb7 steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spartan Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 YEAH MAN!!The vee brake re revolution haha.No man front vee is the best thing ever. The only reason im going front disc is that i snapped the brake bosses off my fork and dont want to get a new one. (Mines custom.)But as long as you dont mind grinding your front rim then vee have sweet power. I would say that my vees on the front worked almost as well as the bb7 i have now, albeit a bit less modulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weighty Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 I think that instead of a vee-brake you should look at doing to a disk. Especially the cable avids. They are really good and sharp.Hope this helps.Weighty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
