Moving to v-brakes for the first time or replacing older/broken v-brake levers, these Shimano BL-T4000 are a quality, but very affordable way to do the job. Fully alloy construction and built in bump stopper makes for a quiet, quality braking feel. Three finger levers mean you can get the power down, while still keeping a hold on the bars. Shimano BL-T4000 Alivio brake levers will do an excellent job of bringing you to a stop, day-in-day out, year-in-year out.
