Hi all
I'd like to convert at least the front brake of a tourer to V brakes.
I'm told that the 'mini' V brakes (Tektro, Dia Compe) will work with
ordinary [Ergopower] levers. Anyone know if this is true?
Also, are the arms long enough to fit over a 32c tyre plus mudguard?
No idea to either question, but you can get them cheap from on-one (£20),
who put them on the Pompino (similar to the Kaffenbak).
