CYSKY Complete Universal V-Brake Kit for Mountain & Road Bikes (Black) — Front/Rear Levers, Cables & Hardware

The CYSKY Complete Universal Bike Brakes Set is a ready-to-fit front and rear V-brake kit that includes levers, inner and outer cables, mounting hardware, and tools to replace or upgrade brakes on most mountain, road, and BMX bicycles.

This all-in-one brake kit supplies both front and rear V-brake arms with pads, a pair of brake levers sized for 22.2 mm handlebars, full-length brake cables with housings, and the small parts and hex key needed for installation. It’s designed to be a practical, lightweight replacement set that works across a wide variety of bikes using V-type brakes, offering a cost-effective way to restore braking performance or outfit a bike with a complete brake system.

How does the kit fit different bikes and handlebars?

The brake levers are made for standard handlebars with a 22.2 mm diameter, which covers most adult mountain and hybrid bars. V-brake arms and the supplied hardware are compatible with bicycles that accept V-type brakes including many MTBs, road bikes with V-brake setups, and BMX models.

• Brake lever clamp diameter: 22.2 mm (0.87 in)
• Rear cable length: 64.9 in (suitable for longer frames)
• Front cable length: 29.5 in (for shorter runs)
• Includes elbow, screws, and stainless steel noodles for standard cable routing

What materials and durability can I expect?

The kit combines aluminum-alloy brake arms and lever bodies with rubber pads and stainless steel fittings for corrosion resistance and lasting use. Outer housings are covered in PU to resist wear, while the brake noodles and small hardware are built to withstand the stresses of regular riding and cable movement.

• Aluminum alloy brake arms for low weight and stiffness
• Durable rubber brake pads that resist heat and deformation
• PU-coated cable housing for abrasion resistance
• Stainless steel noodles and fittings to reduce rust

How simple is installation and what tools are included?

The kit ships with a hex wrench and all the mounting screws and caps you need, so basic home installation is straightforward if you follow standard brake setup steps. You’ll route the cables through the housings and noodles, bolt the V-brake arms to the frame or fork bosses, and fine-tune cable tension and pad alignment for safe stopping.

• All mounting bolts and elbow pieces provided for V-brake mounting
• Hexagonal wrench included for primary assembly
• Instructions: fit brake arms, route cable through noodle, secure cable, adjust tension
• Adjustable pad position and return spring tension for precise alignment

Will this kit restore genuine braking performance?

The CYSKY kit is built to deliver reliable mechanical braking suitable for everyday riding, commuting, and recreational mountain biking where V-brakes are appropriate. While performance depends on correct installation, pad wear, and wheel conditions, the components are designed to provide consistent stopping power for common riding scenarios.

• Replacement pads and properly routed cables improve lever feel and stopping force
• Longer rear cable accommodates a variety of frame sizes and routing paths
• Fine-tuning spring tension helps balance left/right arm return
• Not intended as a hydraulic system substitute for high-performance downhill racing

Who is this for: The kit suits riders who need a full V-brake replacement or upgrade without buying separate parts — cyclists refreshing an older bike, DIY mechanics equipping a commuter or entry-level mountain bike, and workshop owners stocking a versatile, budget-friendly brake set. If your bike uses V-type brakes and 22.2 mm handlebars, this CYSKY set gives the parts and basic tools to get you back on the road or trail quickly.
