So V brakes are really that great? I’ve never used them. All my bikes are CV and they stop okay. But I believe you!

Anyone have a strong opinion about diacompe / tektro / cane creek drop bar levers for V brakes? I’ve read mediocre reviews.

Unfortunate, about the frame failure related to QR for folding.
