Im planning to replace my cantilever brakes with this v brakes. i read many reviews about this, some say they DON'T have stopping power in wet conditions. And others say they are have "Excellent stopping power!". In this two sites, http://www.mtbr.com/cat/brakes/brake-sy ... 08crx.aspx

    first are your brake levers V brake compatible? if not you will have to change them as well.

    re the brakes, basic but work.
