Hey Bob,
I installed an M12 on my Paul Touring Cantis (with the Paul Rack Adapters).
I agree with Bill L. that the UD-2's adjustable side struts -- or the VO
rando rack's adjustable fork crown strut -- make leveling the rack way
easier (for those of us with canti boses but without dedicated
Bill,
Thank you for this. I recall reading the very thing some years ago, but
have been unable to find it again; hence my post here.
I have the RH UD-1 on one bike, and am impressed with it, so the UD-2 may
be the way I go.

You are getting good advice on workarounds for this combination. I think
you understand it, but I think for the benefit of others, it's worth
stating that the Nitto M12 + Paul Cantilever brakes is not an ideal
combination. The Nitto M12 was made to work with cantilever brakes that do

Yup. I only went to the longer bolt set up after striping out VO canto-rack bolts cause they didn’t provide enough spacing. On Aug 9, 2023, at 7:37 AM, greenteadrinkers wrote:I have a set of the Paul rack mount bolts I'd sell for cheap if you are interested. They didn't work out for

Essentially the procedure, whether using chainring bolts or non-threaded
spacers, is just repace Paul's supplied M6 bolt with a bolt long enough to
clear whatever I'm using for spacers plus the rack stay itself. Seems
simple enough. Thank you.

Yes, a longer M6 is needed to make up whatever additional length is added
with the spacer.

Thanks, Steven. So I'd just need a longer M6 screw along with these
spacers? The Touring Cantis have a 20 mm screw, so I'd need something like
an M6x40?
