disc brakes on front, v-brakes on rear

Has anyone tried this? Does it work for you? I don't want to add lugs for rear disc brakes to my frame, so I would only consider using discs on the front. I imagine it should be fine, as most of the braking power comes from the front anyway. The rear brake does not need as much modulation or power as the front. Any comments? Paul Sheldon Brown would agree with you. Personally I like the rear disc brake when going down steep decents though. -- Perre You have to be smarter than a robot to reply. |
