Sram Rim brakes?
Is Sram still making linear pull rim brakes? I went to thier website and didn't see any. All they have for rim brakes are pads. There are some really good deals on Sram brakes out there, but I don't want them if they quit making them. Parts might get hard to find after while.

Im pretty sure they are still making them. In my recent issue of BIKE magazine it shows their brakes/brake levers. They probably wouldn't advertise if they stopped making them.
You could always e-mail them to make sure.

I have SRAM 9.0 oldschool carbon fiber lookalike levers which are the best ones I've ever owned. Even better than a set of XTRs which were hard to beat. I'm sure their v-brakes work just as flawlessly. Probably on par with XTR but for WAY less cash. Although XTR v-brakes are extremely good as well. You can't go wrong with SRAM.
