For the gravel version, it's Aliexpress brakes ; it brakes, but it have problem to adjust and find a right movement for the two arms > poor spring system. I also tried the "Litepro" long arms brake, from aliexpress too, for an other conversion with an other 26" mtb, and it works better (and cheaper!)
