Get a set of 2002 XTRs.. there's tons of the old sets floating around. I had a set... badass brakes. If you use the XTR V's with the XTR levers you won't be disappointed. Awesome modulation and amazing braking power for a v-brake. Don't buy the 2003 XTRs... seek out the older sets. Nobody wants that goofy ass lever-shifter combo!
