Wow, these are amazing. I have an e-bike that's pretty heavy and my regular v-brakes weren't quite as responsive as I liked for my comfort level. I had already tried disk brakes and they were only so-so in my opinion and definitely NOT worth the money, complexity, and extra weight. I decided to give these a try and I am extremely happy I did. They have superb stopping power and modulation with my Avid Single Digit 7 brakes and Speed Dial levers. Way better than a regular v-brake. The pads are a lot thicker than a regular v-brake so I had to let out my brake cable where it bolts onto the brake arm an extra inch or so - luckily I had enough cable left to just lock back in with a little left over. SO be aware there is a possibility you may need a new brake cable if yours are not long enough to accommodate this extra length required. Even that is not a big deal since you can get a good cable for $5 or so and the superior performance of this brake (the BEST v-brake shoe I have ever found) is well worth the minor expense and effort to run a new brake cable. I am 100% happy and plan to convert 2 other bikes to these - for sure on the front wheel where it really matters most.
