For the life of me I can't understand the bad rap cantilever brakes get in these discussions. I've had them on most of my bikes, from old mafac or dia compe style to newer shimano style, and have never had a difficult time adjusting them or maintaining them, or using them in the rain, or snowy weather (provided you know what to expect from them, you can account for it in your riding). I ride daily year round and am sticking with cantilevers, but have also used and would be fine with old weinmann centerpulls, sidepulls, or u-brakes.
The horrible reputation cantilevers (and now all rim brakes in some cases) have, when these kinds of 'this or that' argument come up, tends to make me mistrust similar sentiments about other technology with which I don't have any experience. I get the feeling issues just get blown way the hell out of proportion. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
