The Tektro 857 AL Linear Pull V-Brake is a silver cantilever brake designed for both front or rear installation on mountain bikes and hybrid/comfort bikes.

Its design is noted to fit Shimano Deore components, suggesting good compatibility with common drivetrain setups. It's a single brake unit, ready for replacement or upgrade.
Our take
The Tektro 857 AL V-Brake is a solid choice for anyone needing a dependable cantilever brake for their MTB or hybrid bike. The silver finish is clean and the 'fits Shimano Deore' note is a great indicator of easy integration into existing setups. While it's a cantilever type, the linear pull design generally offers better stopping power than older canti-brakes, which is a definite plus. Being manufactured in Taiwan, I'd expect reasonable quality for the price. This is a practical component that focuses on functionality and broad compatibility for everyday riding.
