je souhaiterais équiper mon vélo de freins v-brake de qualité, j'élimine d'entrée les shimano xtr car trop chéres.En fait d'un point de vue technique je n'arrive pas a me rendre compte des différences qu'il pourrait y avoir entre les produits shimano et avid(single 7 et 5).
merci de vos réponses
Le Deore est déjà très bon... Mais plus que la marque de freins, c'est la propreté et la qualité de la jante ainsi que la qualité des gommes qui font la différence (j'utilise des BBB tri-stop sur des cantis et cela freine vraiment très bien)...
je souhaiterais équiper mon vélo de freins v-brake de qualité, j'élimine d'entrée les shimano xtr car trop chéres.
Pour ma part j'ai des Shimano Deore XT et vraiment satisfaisants... D'ailleurs j'en ai acheté de nouveaux pour remplacer les V-Brake de mon autre vélo.
d'un point de vue technique je n'arrive pas a me rendre compte des différences qu'il pourrait y avoir entre les produits shimano et avid
Les Shimano XT et XTR ont une particularité. Le patin ne suis pas l'angle de la tige, mais reste parallèle à la jante quelque soit l'usure du patin et l'angle de la tige par rapport à la roue. Ils freinent mieux et les patins s'usent plus uniformément que les autres. Ils peuvent aussi être ajustés au repos au plus près de la jante.
Quoiqu'il en soit, les freins à câble posent vite des soucis lorsque l'on roule sous la pluie. Les gaines rouille et grippent le câble, et les patins Shimano agressifs mangent vite la jante. Donc comme cité ci-dessus, mettre des patins moins agressifs et mettre des câbles avec une secondes gaines sur toute la longueur, peut retarder ces problèmes.
Personnellement, je préfère un Magura sur jante, genre HS33, sans entretiens quelque soit les conditions et dont la durée de vie des patins est nettement plus grande que celle des v-brake.
Bonjour , je roule également en tandem avec des freins v-brakes de marque " Avid ". A vide, à deux sans bagages , c'est parfait, mais avec 4 sacoches + remorque bob yack chargée , c'est nettement insuffisant. J'envisage de changer pour des Magura , mais j'hésite pour plusieurs raisons : Est ce que des roues normales ( jantes ) résisteront à la puissance des patins et des étriers Magura , et j'ai des roues/moyeux spécifiques tandem ( à 40 rayons ) dont je suis content. Faut il aussi changer les roues ? Je sais qu'il doit exister des roues à 48 rayons pour tandem , mais est ce que cela existe en taille 26", et où les trouver ?
Que de questions !
Si tu as des infos là dessus , et bien...je suis preneur ! 😛
Bonne route , cordialement,
Jacques.
Nous, ca fait des années qu'on roule en tandem avec des jantes mavic 36 rayons (121, 521 et 721), des moyeux DT tandem et des rayons DT champions 2mm avec nippes en acier. Le freinage se fait avec des HS33. J'ai des jantes céramiques et des normales.
Pour les normales, je prends des patins rouges (cool stop), ça freine mieux qu'un v-brake, et c'est beaucoup moins agressif. Pour la céramique, quand elle est neuve et rugueuse, je prends des patins gris ou noir, lorsqu'elle est lisse, les rouges conviennent aussi.
Passer de 40 à 48 rayons, me parait inutile, une bonne roue, même 36 rayons ne lâche pas, même dans les pires conditions, et le 36 rayons reste nettement plus standard en cas de problèmes.
Nous avons cassé l'année passé notre première jante qui datait de 1996, une Mavic 121 céramique, elle était tellement usée, que la céramique avait disparu à cause de l'usure. Donc rien à dire, elle a fait son temps.
Sinon, une fois la roue rodée, il est très rare qu'on aie à utiliser la clé à rayon, et je n'ai pas souvenir qu'on aie déjà cassé un rayon DT.
Les Shimano XT et XTR ont une particularité. Le patin ne suis pas l'angle de la tige, mais reste parallèle à la jante quelque soit l'usure du patin et l'angle de la tige par rapport à la roue. Ils freinent mieux et les patins s'usent plus uniformément que les autres. Ils peuvent aussi être ajustés au repos au plus près de la jante.
Ce sont les V-Brakes de type "parallélogramme". C'est vrai pour les XTR mais plus pour les XT récents (les anciens modèles XT étaient également à parallélogrammes) qui sont en fait des Shimano Deore en mieux finis. Sinon, je suis assez dubitatif sur ces fameux parallélogrammes : c'est plus lourd, plus compliqué et un bête V-Brake de qualité correcte bien réglé use également les patins uniformément... Enfin, le prix des étriers XTR a de quoi faire tousser !
Pour un freinage "patins" à cable, ce qui est le plus important, ce sont les gommes, la qualité des gaines, cables (et la lubrification lors du montage) et butées ainsi que le "design" de la "ligne de freinage". Ni trop courte, ni trop longue et la plus directe possible. Cela peut être assez sensible sur des V-Brakes et l'est beaucoup sur des Cantilever.
un bête V-Brake de qualité correcte bien réglé use également les patins uniformément
Impossible, à moins de réajuster le parallélisme en fonction de l'usure, à coup de clé 6 pans. Comme le système est fait, si le patin est parallèle avec un certain angle, il ne l'est forcement plus si l'angle des étriers change.
Or plus ça s'use, plus l'angle des étriers sera différent au moment ou le patin touche.
Je ne crois pas que le XT soit beaucoup plus lourd qu'un Deore, et nettement moins lourd qu'un Magura dont le poids correspond à celui d'un frein à disque. Mais en voyage, on s'en fout un peu, en tandem encore plus.
Pour le prix des XTR, on est d'accord, c'est abusé.
ton explication technique est trés interessante.Je vais jeté un oeil sur les tarifs des xt et des avids single 7.En regardant les précédents post sur le sujet tu fait mention des cables qui se gripperaient assez facilement au contact de la pluie, existe-il des cables de qualité se situant a des tarifs correct.
J'ai utilisé cette année le même modèle pour les vitesses pour un marathon qui c'est déroulé sous la pluie. A la fin, mes vitesses étaient grippées, l'eau et la boues avaient réussi à s'infiltrer aux jonctions entre les gaines noires et la gaine de protection.
La même si l'eau s'infiltre, il n'y a aucune chance que la rouille de la ferraille des gaine noires retienne le câble qui est lui dans une autre gaine plastique.
Mais le goretex qui recouvre le câble a des fois tendance a former des boulettes. Il est cependant possible de remplacer à ce moment le câble interne par un câble inox standard et de prolonger la durée de vie de l'ensemble en bénéficiant de la deuxième gaine de protection.
Bref ça revient tout de même cher, si on compte l'ensemble V-Brake XT, le jeu de câbles qui va bien et les patins qui vont bien, j'arrive à 169CHF la paire, alors qu'un Magura HS33 revient entre 154 et 178CHF :
Le frein hydraulique, c'est sans entretiens, les patins se changent sans outils, le parallélisme est respecté, en cas de soucis grave en voyage, il y a toujours moyen de dépanner avec un frein normal. Et si on a un tuyau de rechange, il y a moyen de replacer un tuyau avec un simple clé et de purger le circuit hydraulique avec une seringue et de l'huile de frein Citroën, donc trouvable plus facilement qu'un magasin de vélo.
Personnellement, en voyage, je me promène avec 4 patins de réserve et un tuyau de rechange. Si j'ai déjà du faire usage de mes patins, je n'ai jamais du remplacer quoique ce soit d'autre. J'étais content de ne pas avoir de V-Brake mon dernier voyage ou j'ai beaucoup roulé sous la pluie et dans le sable, parce que manger un patin de Magura sur 1000km signifie que le V-Brake aurait tenu à peine 250km dans les mêmes conditions, et je n'aurais jamais eu assez de patins de réserve pour terminer mon voyage.
les deore feront très bien l'affaire, je viens de commander des XT, je ne vois pas de grosse de différence visible entre les 2, peux être les matériaux utilisés.
ah oui j'oubliais! je suis parti 2 semaines en écosse en juillet, on s'est pris la pluie tout les jours et en quantité!, lors de mes précédant voyages le vélo a aussi toujours "dormi" dehors, donc rosée etc... j'ai jamais eu de problèmes de grippage, de cables rouillés etc... et ça freine toujours suffisement meme chargé (moteur 75kg + vélo 13kg + bagages 13kg).
Je pense aussi que freinage des V brakes dépend surtout de la qualité de la gomme et de l'état de la jantes.
🙂 Bonjour et merci, tu m'as convaincu ( et rassuré ), je passe aux Magura HS 33 dès que possible, je " planche " déja sur les prochains itinéraires....
Cordialement,
Jacques.😎

I’ve gotten used to crossing Europe by bus to return by bike.
It was really convenient to take the bike without having to disassemble it.
But FlixBus no longer accepts bikes...
What alternatives do you know about?
Thanks.
I’m planning to cycle from Morlaix to Brest (via Roscoff and the V45 coastal route). We’ll start riding on August 16th for 13 days (with stops for island visits, surfing, etc.). Is there a lot of traffic at this time of year? I’ve got two kids, 11 and 13, and we don’t like riding in the middle of cars (we’ve already done the Vélomaritime—Caen to Cherbourg—the Loire route from Orléans to Saumur, the Vélodyssée from Nantes to Royans, and the canals like the Nivernais and Bourgogne, where there were plenty of bike-only lanes, which isn’t the case on this route).
Thanks for your help if you’ve already done this route in late August!

I’ve got my flight ticket sorted—departing in mid-November and returning in mid-March. I’ll arrive in Santiago and leave from Buenos Aires.
I’ve already been to southern Argentina, specifically Torres del Paine National Park, and I’d love to go back to do the full W trek (I only did the shorter version last time).
I also want to do some hiking and maybe even tackle a summit. I climb and occasionally do some mountaineering, so I’ll definitely be going with a guide.
I plan to start around Temuco in Chile, with the idea of heading toward the lakes, then taking the Carretera Austral.
I’m not sure if I’ll go all the way to Ushuaia—it’s supposed to not be *that* worth it, except for the bragging rights of saying you’ve been to the end of the world.
I saw there are lakes in Argentina too.
I don’t have a precise itinerary, but what I’d love is, once I reach the southernmost point of my trip, to take a mini-cruise to see some wildlife. Any tips for that?
What kind of sleeping bag did you take? Is a 0°C (32°F) one enough?
And one last question: white gas stove or can I get by with my gas stove?
This summer, we’re planning to cycle along the EV 19 that follows the Meuse River from Langres all the way to Rotterdam.
My question is about getting back to Nantes.
Do any of you know what the best return option might be? I’d love to hear about your experiences.
I saw that FlixBus doesn’t take bikes.
By train, I think it’s possible but would involve multiple local trains.
We were also wondering if there’s a boat from Rotterdam to Saint-Nazaire that could take passengers with bikes.
Any tips or experiences you can share would be really helpful—thanks in advance!
Have a great evening
Hi there,
I’ve been road cycling for several years, and I’m about to switch to gravel in the next few days—I’m waiting for my bike, which should arrive this week.
I’m planning a bikepacking trip in a few weeks along the Véloroute V81, also known as the Vélosud, from Biarritz to Le Barcarès.
Has anyone here already done this route? Any info is welcome, whether it’s about the route itself, gear, or accommodation. I’ll prioritize staying with locals as much as possible. On that note, I just signed up for the brand-new site *Guidon et Couette* ((www.guidon-et-couette.fr)), which offers free accommodation between cyclists across the country, but there’s almost no one listed along my route!
Thanks in advance.
Laurent.
I’m planning to build a new touring bike.
I want to prioritize lightness.
That said, I’m tempted by a suspension fork that could offer some comfort on rougher roads.
The recent appearance of gravel suspension forks on the market might meet my needs—at least on paper.
I’m particularly considering the RockShox Rudy Ultimate XPLR fork.
Unlike MTB forks, its travel is short: either 30 mm or 40 mm.
It weighs 1400 g, which is 400/500 g more than a steel fork.
Any thoughts or real-world feedback on this?
I’m also wondering about the durability of magnesium (lower leg) for long-distance bike touring.
And what’s the impact of skipping the manufacturer-recommended maintenance every 50 and 200 hours? That’s bound to happen on a long trip unless you carry extra gear.
More generally, how reliable are these kinds of forks?
Hi everyone,
I wanted to share with you the incredible feat my friend José, who’s 72 years old, is currently undertaking. He left Auterive near Toulouse on Monday, May 18, 2026, on his non-electric bike, heading for the North Cape in Norway!
You can follow his route on the link below—he’s currently in Sweden:

I’m making an exception and creating a separate post this time, since it’s all about France. In May, we spent a week in Provence, specifically in the Luberon, exploring the cycling routes *Autour du Luberon à Vélo*, the *Véloroute du Calavon* (part of EuroVelo 8), and the shorter *Les Ocres à Vélo* route. Together, they gave us an amazing journey through rolling hills, vineyards, lavender fields still green in spring, and some of the most stunning landscapes in southern France.
It was, of course, the perched villages that impressed us the most. We visited Gordes, Roussillon, Bonnieux, Lacoste, Lourmarin, Ménerbes, Oppède-le-Vieux, Cucuron, and Lauris. Many of them are among the most beautiful villages in Provence, and it’s hard not to agree with that reputation.
One interesting point is the route of EuroVelo 8 in this part of the region. The official path mainly follows the old railway line of the *Véloroute du Calavon*, which is very comfortable and safe. But in our opinion, cyclists traveling EuroVelo 8 around the Mediterranean would discover even more treasures if the route passed through villages like Bonnieux, Lacoste, or Oppède-le-Vieux.
We were also pleasantly surprised by how safe cycling felt. Most of the route takes small local roads, but traffic is light, drivers are respectful, and road design really takes cyclists into account. It’s one of those places where you can ride peacefully even without separated bike lanes.

Hi there, we’re planning a Munich to Venice bike trip at the end of June 2026. Getting back from Venice to Toulouse by train with 4 bikes isn’t straightforward. What return options have others who’ve done this trip chosen? Any tips or great deals would be much appreciated. Thanks a bunch! !
Hi everyone,
Happy owner of a Pegasus Estremo bike with a Rohloff hub, which is giving me trouble with the SF11-NCX-FT-E-LITE 700C TS 300/0 fork (serial number TD01329060). It’s starting to show its age, and I’d like to repair it to extend the life of my beloved bike.
The suspension is gone, and there’s an oil leak from the seals.
Does anyone know how to repair it? Where can I find parts that are about fifteen years old? Or where to find an identical replacement fork? Just to clarify, the Magura HS11 brakes are mounted using Firm Tech, meaning they’re on pivots behind the fork, facing the frame.
Hi, I'd like to know if anyone has done this route recently or has reliable info.
Does the track exist, and most importantly, is there sand (for biking)?
Any info is welcome.
Cheers,

Hi there,
New to bike touring,
I’d love to start with a section of the Via Rhona to explore and share (route to be decided).
Looking forward to exchanging tips!
I’m landing in Madagascar with a buddy before the end of April 2026. We’re planning to bike around for about twenty days or so. We don’t have a specific goal other than exploring the country and meeting the locals.
Ideally, we’d prefer a loop route starting from Antananarivo with a good chunk of it along the coast. On the bike side, we’re used to riding 6 to 8 hours a day, depending on the needs, encounters, and mood 😉 Any feedback or tips from trips around this length?
A big thank you to Lazarou for all the info you share in this forum!
I'm passionate about Morocco, which I cycled through back in 2009.
Last year, my wife and I explored the High Atlas by tandem. Completely smitten, we're heading back in April (Anti Atlas) and May (High and Middle Atlas), still on our tandem.
Do you have any info on the track between Amezri and Ali Ait Nito? Are the river crossings in the Tessaout still there? It's not easy to navigate with a loaded tandem... especially if the river level is high due to this year's heavy snowmelt!
Thanks in advance for any tips you might have, and best wishes for health in this new year!

Tout d'abord... bonne année ! De belles routes à vous en 2017 !
Je voyage depuis quelques années avec un VTT de très bonne qualité mais équipé de freins à disques hydrauliques. Je vis (pédale) avec l'inquiétude d'avoir une panne (fuite, bulle d'air, chaleur qui fait que le liquide...). Mon vélociste me dit qu'il est impossible de les changer pour des V brakes.
Qu'en pensez-vous ? Est-ce que je prends un gros risque à continuer (seule) avec ces freins ? D'avance je vous remercie pour vos bonnes idées.
First post here to share a quick recap of our west-to-east bike trip along Algeria’s coast in January 2025.
It was just the two of us—my partner and I—with French passports and not a word of Arabic. No friends or welcoming hosts in the country.
Under those conditions, we’d strongly advise against going.
Our original plan was to follow the coast from Algiers to Tunis. We ended up cycling from Algiers to Béjaia, then took the train from Béjaia to Annaba (with a stop in Constantine), and finally biked to the border.
We were tailed by police the whole way—whether on our bikes, on the train, or even on foot while exploring towns. On top of that, we couldn’t wild camp and were limited to the few state-approved hotels that accept foreigners. Under those circumstances, connecting with locals was especially tough.
With such an omnipresent and intrusive police presence, we’d definitely recommend against this destination for bike touring. A really sad situation that completely cuts you off from the local population...
We’d been warned, we went to check it out, and we weren’t disappointed!
Hi there,
I’m planning the route to cycle from Lille to Nordkapp with my partner.
Duration: 3 months, from May 1st to July 31st, 2026.
In the attached details below, I need to add some "non-riding" days (rest days, basically).
So I’m looking to "shorten" the trip by taking ferries or trains for some stretches. Which areas could I skip?
Thanks in advance for your great tips.
Have a good evening.

Just a few words about the loop I did by bike in Yunnan.
Entry and exit
I entered China through the Sino-Vietnamese border crossing at Lào Cai / Hekou under the 30-day visa exemption currently available to French nationals and others.
The process was simple and quick. A Chinese police officer even helped me complete my electronic pre-registration at a computer kiosk. I wasn’t aware this formality was required—it’s similar to Thailand’s TM6.
No issues with the bike.
I left the country via the Sino-Laotian border crossing at Mohan / Boten.
The atmosphere was a bit chaotic there, but again, no problems with the bike.
The timing
I visited Yunnan in February 2026.
Weather-wise, at higher altitudes (between 1,500 and 2,000 meters), it was around ten degrees at night and in the mornings, and around twenty degrees at the hottest part of the day.
I had two days of rain, so I took the bus to keep moving. Otherwise, clear blue skies.
Culturally, Chinese New Year fell on February 17th (and the 15 days following), right in the middle of my trip. Because of this, my take on the traffic might be off.
Accommodation and food
I always found a hotel to stay in for prices ranging from 8 to 15 €. Except in Kunming (the capital), where many hotels were fully booked (Chinese New Year). I ended up at a 100 € hotel with great value for money.
A bowl of noodles costs about 1.5 € on average.
Onboard electronics
Since my smartphone doesn’t support eSIMs, I subscribed to a China plan with my carrier. Otherwise, for much cheaper, Alipay offers eSIMs for foreigners that allow access to services usually blocked for Chinese users (WhatsApp, Facebook, etc.).
An internet connection is essential for paying with Alipay or WeChat, as this payment method is widespread.
I only managed to use Alipay.
Either way, always carry cash because sometimes there’s no signal, or the merchant only accepts WeChat.
Also, it’s best to bring a power adapter when you arrive rather than struggling to find one.
Traffic and roads
The Chinese aren’t reckless drivers. They follow traffic rules and watch out for cyclists. This is slightly less true in Xishuangbanna (the region bordering Myanmar and Laos).
In urban areas, there are almost always wide bike lanes, separated from other roads, where bikes, electric mini-scooters, and scooters share the space pretty harmoniously.
The roads are in great condition, and traffic is generally manageable—even light—except for one stretch (Eshan -> Yangwu).
Most traffic is absorbed by expressways, China’s equivalent of highways: toll roads that are off-limits to slow vehicles.
You’re never far from these expressways; sometimes you even ride alongside them, which can be noisy at times.
The climbs are usually reasonable, around 5% to 6%. From what I remember, the steepest section was between Menglun and Mengla, with gradients of 8% to 10%, sometimes more.
Riding at these altitudes—though modest—took a bit of getting used to.
The route
I didn’t plan anything in advance. My only goal was to reach Kunming. I don’t know why, but just hearing the name of that city, like Yunnan, always felt dreamy to me.
Hi! I’m planning to visit the Stockholm Archipelago by bike in early April.
Do you know if the boats will be running between the different islands at that time of year? For those who’ve already been, all your tips and recommendations are welcome—accommodation, etc. Also, do you know where I can rent a bike in Stockholm? Thanks so much in advance for your help!
Hello there, pedal-powered Young Boys!
Claudio (still from Faverges)
dreaming about a cycling getaway in Italy from Faverges (train all the way to Turin)
from Turin down to Venice along the Po River and back via the Padana (Alta Italia da attraversare – Northern Italy to cross)
The tricky part is getting from Chioggia to Venice.
I read it’s possible by hopping on a boat from island to island,
but it sounds a bit stressful.
Has anyone already tackled this route?
I’m currently looking for a bike to do my first bike trip across France, with the ultimate goal of cycling through Latin America. I’ve got a lot of questions and I’d love to hear if you have any answers or advice to share.
First off, I’ve been through this before with hiking. I want to get top-quality gear right away. When I started hiking, I ended up buying everything three times—first beginner gear, then intermediate, then expert, etc.
For biking, I’d prefer to skip that process and invest right now in a bike that could ideally handle Latin America.
I’ve set a total max budget of around 5000 € (roughly 4000–4500 € for the bike and the rest for accessories: panniers, helmet, cycling shorts, etc.).
So, I’ve got quite a few questions:
* I’ve read in several places that some people recommend buying the bike directly in Latin America. Since I need a first bike to train in Europe, would it be better to buy an entry-level bike in France (and sell it before the big departure)? Or is it preferable to start right away with my final bike to get used to it? Is buying it there just to save a bit of money?
* For a long-term trip (around six months) in Latin America, is it better to go for a gravel bike or a mountain bike?
* Should I buy a new bike or a refurbished one? Even more so given that I’m planning a long trip—could a refurbished bike end up causing more breakdowns?
If you have any advice on models, technical features to prioritize, or recommended sellers or resellers, I’d love to hear it. I’m a total beginner—I’ve only just started watching videos and reading up on the subject, and all the technical specs are new to me!
Calling all travelers.
We’ll be landing at Lyon Airport and want to bike to La Verpillière train station (with panniers and camping gear, etc.) to catch a TER to Voreppe.
What’s the safest route for this bike trip?
Thanks in advance
