Hi Speed Demon. Hydraulic brake levers wont work on V brakes unless you are using hydraulic V brakes. Normal v brakes use a cable whereas hydraulic brakes run a fluid line and these arent compatible. Check your bike for the correct frame fittings for discs or if you are not sure take the bike to your local bile shop and ask them to check for you.
