A set of Tektro RS360A flat bar brake levers for linear pull (V style) brakes, with a cast aluminum bracket and a 2 finger lever blade.

What it's for

These levers replace worn, bent, or broken brake levers on a flat bar bike with linear pull brakes. Tektro designed the RS360A for use with linear pull brakes alongside a Rapidfire shifter.

Compatibility

• Fits: Linear pull brakes.
• Why it matters: Linear pull brakes need a lever that pulls more cable than a lever made for cantilever, caliper, or road mechanical disc brakes. Mixing the two types gives poor brake feel and power.
• How to check yours: Linear pull brakes have two long arms on the frame or fork posts, joined at the top by a cable and a curved metal guide tube (noodle).

Specs

• Model: RS360A
• Lever blade: 2 finger
• Material: cast aluminum lever and bracket

• Weight: 180 g per lever
