[RBW] Secondary Levers and V-Brakes

[Joe Bernard]

My largely uneducated guess would be no. These tend to be used on bikes with 
side-pulls or cantilevers, which use shorter cable travel than v-brakes. Also, 
my experience with road levers that supposedly work with V's is that you have 
to set the pads very close and hope it works. She might be better off using 
whatever levers she likes with a Travel Agent doohickey.

[RBW] Secondary Levers and V-Brakes

[Brad Arnold]

Hello All:

My wife and I recently bought matching Joe Appaloosas and the bikes have 
been great as anticipated. My wife, however, does not find the swept back 
bars comfortable and would like to put drop bars on instead. She also wants 
secondary (in-line) brake levers because she spends 99.9% of the time on 
the tops. I know V-brakes require a long-pull brake lever and Tektro makes 
one for drop bars (RL520). Will secondary brake levers work with this setup 
(Nitto Noodle, V-brakes, Tektro RL520s, and secondary levers)?

Thank you,

Brad
