I have lots of experience with bunches of SP & canti brakes, along with assorted levers, but very little with V brakes and none with disks. During the last month I have had the opportunity to try both out. We have test ridden two tandems (a DaVinci with ICS and a CoMotion with a Rolhoff). Much to my surprise I could not tell much difference between those to sets of disk brakes and the neo retros on our tandem. Both the power and modulation felt very similar. I am now visiting my son in El Cerrito and we borrowed a bike with Tectro V brakes. I found them very powerful but the front brake had almost no modulation at all. Just the slightest touch of the lever brought the bike to a complete stop.
Is this typical of V brakes? Do others who have tried these have a similar impression? Michael -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
