Control Tech v-brake, 1998 circa
I had a set of brakes similar to these but they had a stainless wire/rod to link them not a noodle.
Worked well and were very cool.
Those look like Control Tech V-Brakes. I have the Cantilever version on a Santa Cruz Tazmon very creative spring system (located in the triangle).
Machine Tech???
No Control Tech!
1960s campy seatpost dropper.
Machine Tech.
Control Tech V-Brakes. Had them on my Gary Fisher Cake.
These look like Grafton brakes
Control tech. Machine tech were much more artistic.
Original campy track hubs with custom drilled grease ports.
D’oh, Vittorio scored it, round one

to me they look like mcmahon’s .after the super cool bat wing cantie’s were introduced v brakes came in and took over the market, If any one knows what I am talking about , the bat wing canti was dope yall .
Marinovative v brake?
At first thought they were Marinotave (spelling?), but I only remembered those in silver. So would lean to a set of Control Tech’s instead.
