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.

Have no idea. They are V-brakes, not canti and I believe have a standard length. It is not specified on the SRAM/Avid website.

I don't know. I have 2 bikes and 2 horns. Both work just fine. Go over the instruction again. They have live support, so call them. I did and they helped me get thru the install. Good luck.

Not sure, I had to mount my boards on the highest setting for my feet to fit under the brake lever. After a test ride I had to adjust them down a little for comfort, but I never had a problem with them hitting up against anything. Sorry but good luck to you!

most of todays mtb frames are standard with brake mounts. So yes if your Giant has them. Forks also. Sometimes you may need adapters but they come with the brakes. Most likely an adapter on the rear as long as your frame has brake mounts. but not on the fork.

Yes. This should work for you. If you go to tekero (website) fl740 and fl540 are almost the identical brake lever as the XLC alloy. On the front of the package, "will work with V-brake, U-brake, Cantilever and roadrace.

The center of the handlebars (stock) are 25.4mm. However, learning from my mistakes, the diameter of the bar tapers down from the center so I would suggest finding brake levers from 22-24mm. That or get shims at a LBS, though for brakes it's a huge meh :/

No. These are motorcycle specific as each bolt up differently have may have different clearances for brake and shift levers. Be more specific in your search, like 2012 Kawasaki Vulcan 90LT freeway bars!

Maybe, maybe not. The description gives specs to use to check for fitting on any bike. You will need a metric ruler to measure your particular brake layout to determine if thy fot or not. These are ok brakes and I am only using he front one on my motorized bike. Check with a local bike shop should you need help with these measurements. Good luck!

Bryan, that's a hard question to answer. The brake shoes are 30 mm from the center of the post to the rear and require at least 30mm of clearance so that they don't run into the front fork. For the rear brake, the shoe measures 25 mm from the center post to the front of the shoe (the part facing forward), so you would need at least 25 mm of clearance. However, the amt of clearance for the front brake depends upon the inner width of the front fork, and how many washers you could stand to install to mount the brake arms. Sorry, can't answer this exactly, since I don't know the dimensions of your bike. I can tell you that these are very good brake shoes, at least as good as the best Campagnolo shoes and maybe better. The only sure fire way of checking for fit is to buy a couple and try them out. I would like to mount them on some vintage Campy Super Record, single pivot brake arms on my time trial bike that has a Reynolds Ouzo Pro carbon fork, but they won't fit, and there is nothing I can do.

No. I believe you need to buy Shimano. Or ones compatible with shimano. These are only SRAM

I didn't take measurement of the inner diameter so I can't really tell you any numbers but all I can tell you is that I installed Cane Creek 200 TT Time Trial Levers without a problem. Cane Creek says the brakes fits inner diameter of 19-21mm.

If you have a flash hider on that rifle, it should be easy. I was able to take off the stock hider and install the brake with just a padded set of vise-grips.

Yes most v brake levers will work with most major mechanical disc brakes, sorry for the delay on my response. Thank goodness Christmas is over.

The bike comes with tools to put the handle bar on and I would buy bullhorn handle bars from Retrospec and it should work fine. They would also sell a longer cable if needed.

This is a interrupter lever, it works in conjunction with your existing brake levers (Sitting between the current brake lever and the brake) it gives you two brake levers for a single brake.The lever would be compatible with both MTB and Road, but I cant imagine using it on any bike with flat bars.

G'day Dan. I have no idea what type of bike that is, but if I was you I would just go to the SRAM/RockShox website for advice on the bikes and types of riding that this fork would suit. Regards, Paul. PS: I haven't even got the darn forks fitted to my own bike yet, so don't have a clue about performance - apart from what I've read.
