Bowdeny brzd V-brake

Swapped these on after my old noodles kept the cable kinked at a weird angle, and the difference in lever feel was immediate. The variety of configurations meant I actually found one that matched my housing approach instead of forcing a bend.

The angled noodle finally let me route the housing cleanly around my frame, no more tight bends pinching the cable. Braking feels smoother and the pads hit the rim evenly on both sides now.

Swapped these onto my rear brake and the housing now runs through the noodle at a much cleaner angle, which killed the drag I'd been fighting for weeks. Fit was right the first time, no filing or fiddling to get it seated.
