Discs are taking over, but we're all firm V-brake fans, except for Mark, who can't give up his cantilevers for his personal bikes, but admits that V-brakes are really good.* *4. One cantilever brake. Started it along time ago. It's easy enough to keep going. I wish we had control over it, but we don*'t.
