UUUUU Brake Q

[letmetalktomark]

Quick Question......

Should a V brake lever operate a U Brake alright?

I know V brakes don't work with cantilever brakes :?

Just wondering?

Cheers dudes

V brake levers pull too much cable for U brakes - you end up with a very hard feel at the lever and not much power.
However, I've used Avid Speed Dial levers in the lowest pull /most leverage position and they are ok (with Shimano U brakes at least).
