What brakes should I be looking for if I'm building a 90s mountain bike into a contemporary commuter-beater? Stick with the stock XT M750 v-brakes or get the contemporary ones? Or ditch the v's altogether?
Might be worth fitting a brake booster if they do.
Excellent, thanks. Steel fork on alloy frame, would you recommend front and rear boosters? They're the perfect excuse for that little injection of silly-coloured anodised parts.
