Will a set of Sram Apex brakes work on this bike? Potentially with Cane Creek 200TT Levers on bullhorns?

i don't see why not. the bike's factory default brakes use the side pull system so i see no reason why the sram apex wont work. and for the brake levers, as long as you can find bullhorns that have a large or small enough diameter to fit the levers themselves. luckily, the quill stem on this bike is quite generous in terms of handlebar diameter. but to be sure, check the diameter online. for reference though, the quill fit my 25.4mm diameter bullhorns.

Probably not. The fork on this bike is cheaply made. I tried fitting SRAM and Shimano brakes to the fork but because of the way the fork is drilled it didn't fit properly.

B: I'm not wise enough to retrieve the photos regarding your inquiry. I would suggest articles by Sheldon Brown (now deceased) at Harris Cyclery. This author explains the details of brake systems and the various levers which can mount to the bars and ends you may have.

I can't say for sure about your shifters, but I mounted some old 7spd Deore shifters on these bars with no problem. Also some mountain brake levers which were fairly standard, so you'll probably be able to mount your shifters fine. I measured the bar's diameter, and it looks close to 22.2 mm. Hope that helps!

I have bought 2 sets of these awesome brakes and they have worked on both of my bikes (Giants). i don't see why they wouldn't work on your Trek 8.4 DS. just know that the brake levers are on opposite sides not the regular U.S. standards. hope everything works out well.

Per SRAM these will work with both linear pull (v-brake) rim brakes and mechanical disc brakes. Non-direct pull caliper brakes take a different lever.

I think so this works in most of mountain bike. Even bmx my was with disc brakes I converted and works perfectly, hope this help you.good luck

the steerer tube on these forks I 265 mm. you will, more than likely, need to cut them to size. you can find most other info you need on sram.com. I have enjoyed these forks

I would think that most of not all levers are universal in how they mount, but since I'm not a professional and don't go looking at a wide variety of bikes and how their levers are attached, I don't know for sure, but I would think they would work fine

Yes these should work. I have ran these pads on 26" and 700c rims. I have used them on cantilever, V and road brakes.

NO! No, it will not work. The SRAM shifters only work with SRAM rear derailieurs, because the ratio is 1:1 vs Shimano 2:1. The front derailieurs for both systems are interchangeable as they use the same ratio.

They would work, but most mountain bikes use disk brakes. These are more appropriate for ordinary street use.

I'd be very surprised if your base bar is 22mm. Most bikes are 25.4 and larger. The bars would only work on your bar if you could find a shim at your local bike shop that's thick enough.

They should work, but I only like to use Avid BB7 brakes because they are so adjustable.

Nicholas, I'd love to help you but just don't know - I'm not a bike expert. I did some research on my frame and parts and made sure they all jived then bought them. They are very good brakes and for the price, hope they do fit your bike because I know you'll love 'em!

Likely not, they mount to the front levers mounting bracket and are shaped around the brake fluid reservoir. I wouldn't expect these two bikes to share these parts in common.

I'm running Shimano XTR V brakes. They function perfectly with these forks. You may need to adjust your diacomp V brakes to make them seat properly.

These levers should work on caliper road brakes, canti brakes, and mechanical disk brakes. They will not work well with v-brakes.
