• Accidentally bought Skinny's Pompino. Plan is for a cheap SSCX bike for some Epping winter fun and maybe the odd race. Alfine cranks on order, currently got v brakes on, are these really not going to work with road pull levers?

  • are these really not going to work with road pull levers?

    Get some tektro V brake drop bar levers?

  • Had drop bar levers and V-brakes on my Pomp and worked perfectly. Cane Creek and Tektro do specific V-brake drop bar levers. I have some spare if you're interested and you think what you have won't work.

  • What are the brakes?

    Tester pointed me to some 85mm Sora level Vs that are not light but very effective with road levers. The Tektro v levers are not nice IMO.

  • The old Shimano 105 levers work perfect with TRP 8.4

  • You need a pair of Dia Compe levers. I think they're 287V or some such product code. I have them on the cross checker - they work really well
