    I am going to change the boys inherited 24″ Cube from V-Brakes to disc, any low price recommendations? Probably mechanical over hydraulic I think, for price reasons. Cheers

    Mechanical? BB5 for value… however – Clarks M2 is a decent brake set… and will set you back £40! WITH ROTORS!

    EDIT – Thats the old ones sorry. New ones are £80. Still a bargain but then Deore is only £75…

    EDIT on my EDIT – It should be said AFAIK the old M2s were also a pretty decent brake all things considered. And at £40 for a complete set you cant really go wrong.

    Why not get some second hand Deore brakes?

    Might be able to pick up some Shimano Deore M596s second hand for about £20 a side maybe.

    Or maybe stick something in the wanted section? 🙂

    Doh! Never think 2nd hand where the children are concerned, not like it’s a birthday present or anything is it! Hydraulic it is, Shimano 2nd hand
