Well, I haven't ridden V brakes for quite a while, but they feel very good! Initial bite is very controllable, and modulation seems fine to me....and I can lock up both wheels if I wanted to....
Pads don't rub on the rims, and they seem set up ok.....I'm expecting to have to do some fettling soon, as the cables are going to stretch..
My impression: I think you can do road levers and V-brakes, and they'll feel great when set up perfectly, but you need to run the pads really close in, and if the pads wear or the rim goes out of true they'll need adjusting.
