After trying a few different cantilevers on my Quickbeam, I finally
settled on using V-brakes. I did have to switch levers to do this. I
know that many people on this list disdain V-brakes, but I find that
they are excellent for braking, especially in wet weather, and I don't
have any problems modulating the stopping power. I also find them
easier to set up and adjust than cantilevers.
