The MTB caliper brake is the oldest type of brake in history !

The system consists of a lever,a cable and a internal cable routing, a caliper and a pair of brake pads. The impurities are kept outside the casing by means of the duct ends and the cables are equipped with cable ends in order not to fray (you'll also find these parts under the names of cable stop or cable casing).

The system works by friction of the shoes on the rim, these being actuated by a lever on the handlebar, the force is transmitted by the cable which slides in the casing.

This system uses the brake pads lining (or cartridge) but also the brake track of the rim which gets hollow the more it's used.  

Different caliper brake systems

There are different types of brake calipers for MTB, such as the central draw or the cantilever, but these systems have gradually disappeared from the market and the V-brake is tending to give way to the disc brake.

On Alltricks.com, you'll find the MTB caliper brake that will suit you among the best brands and many models: Avid, Paul, Shimano, XLC...

MTB V-Brakes

 
A V-Brake is a system comprising of a lever, a cable and housing, a caliper and a pair of brake pads.
V-Brakes are a side-pull version of cantilever brakes. The cable housing is attached to one arm and the cable to the other arm but during braking, the arms are drawn together. 
 
A V-Brake works directly on the rim and the attached tyre.

Alltrick tip: use cable end caps to keep cables from fraying wildly.

Other kinds of MTB Brakes

 
There are different kinds of MTB calipers such as cantilever calipers but they are gradually replaced by V-Brakes who are gradually replaced by MTB disc brakes.
 
You will find on Alltricks.com a large range of MTB V-Brakes from the biggest brands: Avid, Paul, Shimano, XLC...
