One of these years I’ll get up there. Probably once my son can join me.
He’s still doesn’t tolerate the kid seat for more than about 5 miles at a
time.

It's not surprising to me that Pauls would be better than the 720s. I know
they (Tektro 720s) have a dedicated following; I can't understand why. In
my experience, they were mediocre stoppers, replaced quickly by Shimano
CX70s and then by mini-Vs.
I just replaced some budget Shimano cantis

IME the problem with the Tektros wasn't the stopping power but the sloppy
pivots. They stopped about as well as the Pauls but they squealed and
juddered. The Pauls are machined much more precisely and don't squeal at
all or judder as much.
On my bike, the Pauls are no worse than any other cantilev
And!!! Zests are half the price of Pauls!

those zeste cantilever brakes have a Meccano set vibe that I rather like
I have experience with the grand cru road. it wouldn't surprise me that
these work well too.

Cost was a significant part of my argument, for sure. Also, Zestes will
work with the normal spring anchors on most posts. I am not a fan of
Paul's spring solution - it's tidy but I found it finicky to adjust (and
keep adjusted) on the one set of minimotos I owned. That said, the Zeste

Ah! Ok… sorry, when I zoomed in, I misread the tires as Naches Pass (which are 26”), instead of Hatcher Pass (700). So I thought it was one of the 26” models, like my 54.5 Toyo. Great work! Sorry you had to deal with a damaged frame, but it seems to have all worked out for the best!On Oct 14, 2023,
A Nitto S84 has at least 10mm LESS setback than the IRD Wayback (approx
40mm (S84) vs 50mm (IRD) per RBW site). Leah pics shows the IRD to be
full back. So even if she could use a 27.2 post, the S84 does not have
the setback she needs.
The real question is why didn't RBW design the frame f

Well, for those curious, I discovered and impulsively bought a set of WTB
Resolute tires in 700x42. A friend of mines wife runs these on her Hoefer (

Leah, if only you could link up with a trustworthy board member-mechanic
who could carefully ream the seat tube for her! I'm not sure who that would
be 🤔 The S84 is the ultimate.
I certainly understand your reluctance to have a local shop do this for you
after the recent stories you shared!
Justin and Stephen — I'll be on my Appaloosa so that'll be three mermaid
frames... at least!

Leah, it seems to me the way to go is pick up a nice looking, reliable, and
tough seatpost like a Thomson Elite setback seatpost like this one in
26.8mm diameter. They may make it is silver also but black is all I've ever
used. On sale at $85.79 below, and I have NO involvement with the seller.
