Description
Paul Components has been manufacturing bicycle components in a renovated garage in Chico, California since 1989, which was a former oil distribution facility for Texaco Oil until 1926. Paul believes that a great product should be based on a simple idea that is both easy to maintain and highly functional.
Mini V-brake compatible with short pull levers, which is the load lever ratio. It is compatible with most major drop bar brake levers with integrated shifters.
Due to its V-brake characteristics, it is easier to set up than a cantilever brake and has mechanical advantages as well. The brake arms are curved on the sides to provide ample clearance for cyclocross and wide fenders, which are prone to getting muddy. Of course, the braking power is higher than that of cantilever brakes, making them a good upgrade for cyclocross bikes.
The simple quick release pivot portion of the brake arm is designed to make the act of widening the brake arm when removing the wheel easy.
*Please purchase two sets if you need a front and rear set.
