Title: Deore V-brakes
Post by: hoogie on October 27, 2004, 07:00:36 AM

Are Deore v-brakes end specific, and how can you tell if they are?

The brakes aren't end(front/rear) specific but the brake blocks are. The blocks have an arrow pointing forward which points the wrong way if you put the brake on the wrong end. M70/T3 blocks are symetrical and can be fitted front or rear as can many after market blocks.
