Hi all, after a decent set of V brakes for my daughters Merdia Dakar 620. Need to be reach adjustable and looking for the whole set.

Any ideas?

    Get on eBay, get some decent levers and and V-arms that are alloy and come from a reputable maker as they are all much of a muchness as long as you avoid the cheap and nasty pressed steel ones.

    Thanks Rookie, are the arms for kids bikes the same size as adult? Just wondering whether to go on CRC and get some half decent Shimano ones.
