Shimano BR-T610 V-Brake Slowing and Stopping Before there were disc brakes, there were V-brakes. V-brakes clamp down on the sides of your rims to slow down and stop. They are simple to use and easy to maintain. The Shimano BR-T610 V-Brake is a linear-pull brake that has a 107mm arch and uses S70C cartridge shoes for a balance of power and noise. These will be perfect for your hybrid, beach cruiser, or city bike.
