這是一篇介紹V夾安裝時可能會遇到的問題及粗略的解法http://www.kobike.com/shop/trends.asp?id=108，有興趣搞V夾的人可以參考看看!! 當然有經驗的也可分享一下~~~~~

V夾的好處有：
1. 重量輕
2. 維修方便
3. 價格較低

壞處有：
1. 調整不便
2. 力量較小
3. 線的阻力會影響手感

以上.......

V夾煞車還有一個好處是煞車夾器本身可以免於車架在煞車時撐開, 因此不用裝煞車補強版 BOOSTER.

因應V夾煞車的使用, 現在也有攀岩車用的吱吱叫V夾煞車皮可用.

網頁進不去 看不到...

actually that is not true about vbrakes not needing a booster. because of the mechanical advantage created by the brake arms, the frames tend to flex more. i ran v-brakes for a long time, and they worked great. i would say the brake offered equal hold, but slightly less bite.

i ended up changing to hs-33 because of weight. I do prefer a water bled hs-33 over v-brake now.

oh, and the v-brake setup was much more quiet with the avid ultimate brake arms. the sealed bearing setup means the lever arms have no plan, and do not vibrate. i really miss having a silent brake.
