Is this the same garbage Tektro Novela 3 star rating brake on Amazon? My hydro brakes are always rubbing and out of Alignment should I get V vbrake?

Have had these brakes since I replaced my v-brakes with them. 6 months and have no trouble as of yet. I don't ride as much as some but have had no trouble stopping in wet conditions since installation.hope it helps.

The quality is good. I have them installed on a custom Giant Prodigy bicycle and they are great. When I installed them, I folded up some paper and inserted it between the rotor and pad, then carefully tighten. They are great for brakes that are under $100.

Most bikes that have disk brakes can't use v brakes because rims are not made for this - better check first

Recommend you check with Koolertron and let everyone else know as I haven't had to rotate tires yet. You should have an Amazon option to ask vendor.

I bought one this summer after another mountain bike was stolen. Everything on the Giordano is gorgeous and functions well. Am using it now to help cross-train for a big cross-country race. One caveat--they painted the rims completely, so I experienced horrendous brake squeal. I took a 3M paint stripper disc and a power drill and sanded the brake area clean. Ruined a little of the look, but I still think I got great "bang for my buck" by buying it through Amazon. Safe riding...Tim

Why did you do so? You choke it only at cold start, and make it WOT when it warms up.My experince is that the engine works fine. The snow discharge shoot is poorly designed. The wing-nut loosens with vibrations after few minutes of operation, thus you lose control of where you want it to go. I am personally working on a patch modification to keep it tight at the angle I want it to be. May reverse-engineer another brand's design when I go to the hardware store. I would have preferred to pay few more $$ and get a better rated machine. Table it to "lessons learned."

I wouldn't suggest u to get this one brandon. Spend the extra money and get a liquid cooled 4stroke . It is about 150 more but totally worth it have no complaints. I bought the cheap two stroke first and it is total garbage . Seriously do not waste your time with thetwo strokes.

I installed the part on a 2003 dodge dakota 4x4 with the boot towards the top also. I do not get any clicking from the part. In fact, the is no noise or play with my steering what so ever. Check rack and pinion bushings There are two of them and that can cause a noise also on bumps. Bill

I am no bike expert and I don't know what a "V" frame bike is... I put them on a 1991 Haro Impasse. I had to but a special retrofit part for the rear brake. Look online for several options for those, I used the "A2Z Universal Disc Mount." These brakes were the best deal even after having to buy the additional retrofit part.

Yes they are. They are long pull levers so they are compatible with V-brakes and mechanical disk brakes. I have tried them on a recumbent with Avid disk brakes and they worked so good, I will be buying another set of these shifters/levers for it after Christmas. They are , however, not compatible with hydraulic disk brakes as they have no fluid reservoir.The set I have on my commuter are still going strong and shifting smoothly even on some rides at below freezing temps.

From the FourWheeler dot com website, they appear to be "E" rated. http://www.fourwheeler.com/techarticles/wheels/129_0805_hankook_dynapro_atm_rf10_tire_test/Hope this helps.

Honestly, I would take it to a shop. It sounds like your transmission is fried. I bought this part because it was damaged and would not go into 4wd. All the internals were chewed up. If yours won't go into 3rd or 4th gear, sounds like the trans. I had a similar issue a few years ago and the shop changed all the fluid in the transmission, this stopped the shifting problems but wouldn't effect the 4wd. That part isn't easy to replace unless you know how to remove the front right cv axel without breaking it. I had a little help. Go to www.trailvoy.com They have fantastic tutorials on a lot of repairs, it's a forum, so you'll have to register. Honestly, I would take it to a shop. It sounds like your transmission is fried.

Hi Kevin...I contacted HCI over the phone, and I think they were in Washington state if I recall. It was a very informal call, as if the company may be very small or something. They asked where I bought my machine, got my address, and sent me two new pistons for free...had them in a few days. The replacements seemed better than the originals, though I'm due for some new ones again as it's been a couple of years or so.

I think you are referring to another brand's sales scheme. I base my buying decision on reviewers that have installed and road tested them. I have not yet. Check the reviews. These seemed like the best deal for a quality set of brakes

Colin, I've used the Tekro Cross levers for both bikes with caliper brakes and v-brakes and they work great for both. Very short, firm pull with the calipers, and the adjust barrel makes fine tuning pad clearance 'so easy a caveman could do it.'

This version come with V-brakes and a RST fork. The brake pads are too bad, i recommend and upgrade.
