0zzy Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 (edited) i already have my front brake sorted (vee btw) its a avid sd5 lever,clarks cable, and sd7 arms with standard pads on a smooth rim. now i wana try it out on the back i already have a sd5 lever so all i want to know is what arms, cable and pads (have to be for smooth rim) for the rear i got around 40 quid to spend tops. i was thinking of clarks brake cable, sd7 arms and some heatsink pads that are suitable for a smooth rim. will that set up be fine or are there better rear vee brakes for the money... ?cheers in advance ozzy!

spartan Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 You can juggle a little where u wanna spend the money.I run avid ultimate arms with rock blue pads and plain deralluer(sp?) housing.If you want ritzy cables the nokon sleeved ones are really nice.If i were you i would suggest avid sd7 arms with vfly pads or the rock greens with either shadow conspiracy or deralluer cables. should be mint man vees are the bomb!Hope this helps,Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
