Laurence--Trials Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 (edited) Ok. So I’ve just bought my new trials bike (onza t-pro) for £225 after buying the buy I realised it had v-brakes and not hydraulics. (yes I know a little embarrassing... bad picture.)Are they okay to work with? How do they feel on a trials bike doing jumps and things? Do hydraulics make that much difference? And if they do can I pick up a good second hand one or two for about £50-£100? Thanks.

Muel Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 Just try them and decide for yourself, loads of people ride with vees.Just get some posh pads and a grind for the rear and it'll be fine to learn the basics with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forteh Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Your Jack Chinnery!Thank you captain obvious! In response to the original question, vee brakes are fine, infact they hold better than maguras but lack alittle of the bite; more than good enough with some decent pads, a well maintained cable and a decent setup. Im using heatsink coust vee pads on the front with a superlight grind and it works like a disk, doesnt bite that hard but modulates quite well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
