Hey mate, evo 2 mounts are for if you want to put magura's on v-brake mounts. They are generally crap, they flex like a bitch. If you only have v-brake mounts then get a nice set of vee's, like avid ultimates, i don't know much about pads though. V-brakes can be as good if not better than maguras if set up properly but if you have 4-bolt mounts on your frame/forks then buy some maguras. Hope i didnt confuse you lol Sam
