Will this setup work with any stock V brake unit? I have Tektro RX6 brakes, and the setup looks almost exact as the picture on Amazon, though the posts on the Kool Stop seem to be offset from the center of the cartridge. And, threaded post or smooth...

yes they will fit. I have had them on my Giant Escape for about six months and love them. You will need the threaded post.

I could not find photos of what I think may be two set of brake levers mounted with these drop ends, on a flat bar. Please give me the site photo, and I will try to help. Keith

I have these on my Rustler VXL. I have never had a problem with them. But they are too long for the stock Bandit rear arms but no one said you can't buy rear arms that will work with these driveshafts. Install Rustler or Stampede rear arms.

Can't answer the first part - (re: Double Taps - they "should"), but can definitely share that the Tektro's work great with my Avid BB5s. Make sure you get the right diameter for your bars though !

Kind of, it requires the mounting screw holes, you could install a spacer (just some nuts on a screw that would supplement the space taken by the vbrakes) and should be fine.

My center post broke, got a replacement, it broke....http://www.ereplacementparts.com/disc-stem-p-707798.html. I threw the whole thing away. I'll get something different.

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.

They fit my 2010 RX 350 wonderfully and I only once have heard any noise from them and found that one of the top filler strips had slipped to one side after unloading a heavy load - once re-adjusted they were again quiet. Not sure if the Thule set would be much better and I believe you might still have to buy the rail mounts for them on top of the $275 price. I guess it would also depend on what other adaptors you might want to use with them - Bike, Kayak, etc...

You should be able to use these... They work on most types of v-brakes and have good stopping power when adjusted correctly

Rockshox air 50 has both v and disc mounts, but only 50mm of travel for 200 bucks. I've search rockshox web. As soon as you go from 26 to 700c they jump to air to get v brake post, and only 50mm travel. If you can go disc the cost for air is the same for a 100mm travel air shock. That's a bummer. I got new rims wiith both machined sidewalls and centerlock hubs to slowly do upgrades as I got the money. But $200 for 50mm of travel seems too high a price for a temporary solution.

Yes it does work with stock break lite just a couple screws to attach I left mine off cause it's kinda pain in the ass if I remeber right. Keep in mind if you run steel wheels with center caps you are gonna have to have something made to center te wheel on the post the post is the diameter of a stock alloy wheel

You should see Avid on the stock brakes. If the stock brakes are Avid these are the correct brakes from Amazon.

not sure,but I doubt it. While the one end will plug into the factory Dodge receptacle (blue plug, left hand panel above the clutch pedal area) ,I kinda doubt the end that plugs into the controller box would be the same on a Reese box and a Tekonsha controller box. I suppose you could use the one and modify the other, but it would be easier to find a plug made for the Reese-if one exists. I would contact Reese to see if there is a true plug and play option for your setup. Its the only way to fly,IMO

This has already been answered by another buyer, however I would add that if you have suspension forks, as I have, you can not get enough space to fit speed sensor!!! So back in box, back in garage, more junk!!

I don't think so. I'm pretty sure that V-brakes have a different amount of pull in the lever. I'm pretty sure these are strictly for cantilever brakes.

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.
