Cantis won't work without some finagling. The usual hanger for the
brake cable (off the back of the seatpost or hung between the two
seat stays) isn't in the right place for the new brake posts on
the Xtracycle FreeRadical. I could make a cable hanger I suppose,
but would prefer to not have to work that hard.
Good to know that most v-brakes will work with a 50mm Big Apple
though. I should be able to scavenge something.
