When I built my Sam last summer I selected what I thought were reasonably priced drive train components that function reasonably well. One result I am less than extatic about is brakes, which are Deore v-brakes with kool stop pads and the Tektro drop bar levers that work with vees. This combination stops the bike just fine, but has nowhere near the modulated feel of the calipers on my Brompton. In comparison the vees fell, for want of a better word, clunky.
So, what am I doing wrong and what can be done to fix it? A different typre of brake? A different model? Different levers and j-tek thingies? I love the feeling of control that good brakes provide. How to I gwt that on my canti Sam? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
