If hou want to keep the levers, you need to stick to canti's. If going for V brakes, you'll need specific levers too.
Try to find some 2nd hand decentish v brakes, no? Lx or something.

I'd like to change the levers too, they're also plastic and nasty. What will be the difference between say deore and Deore XT or these even cheaper ones. They all seem to have pretty much the same design. Will the more expensive ones be much stiffer?

I want to replace the crap plastic cantis on my muddy fox and don't have much experience with cantis/ v-brakes. It's mainly used for commuting so thinking about going for cheap shimano V brakes for less faffing. Is there any difference in performance between brands/ models or is it just about having them set up right? Or does someone want to convince me to get CR720s
