Brake type identification
Cantilever brakes
If your bicycle has come equipped with drop handlebars, and it is a model from our range of 26” or
700c wheeled bikes, then you may have cantilever brakes fitted.
V brakes
V Brakes can be on straight or drop handlebar bicycles with specific levers fitted. These are very easy
to adjust with a little patience.
Dual-pivot caliper brakes
Some of our bikes are supplied with dual-pivot caliper brakes, these are fitted to most of the 700c
wheel models.
