I have the CX70 brakes with kool stop salmon pads on my 26" hunq (which is currently running a 650b wheelset with the brake pads all the way at the top position) and the brakes have always felt too squishy to me, even just after picking the bike up new from Rivendell, and it certainly hasn't help that I've fiddled with them so much over time.
Would V brakes like the Motolite or Minimoto work on the cantiliver bosses? They seem to get very positive reviews. Clearance seems to be an issue. Or would Paul Touring Canti or Neo Rretro brakes make more sense for this frame and wheelset/tire choices (and if so is there really an advantage of Paul canti's vs. the Shimano's)? I'm using Shimano road brake levers on Albastache bars. 650b x 42mm compass tires, though I am thinking of going with the rat trap passes and going back to the 26" wheelset. Or can someone school me in how get my CX70's nice and tight so I don't need to look at other options (I've tried a LBS for adjustments and that didn't seem to help). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
