Lovely brakes

Yeah, on that frame? Might as well put on an A2Z adapter and some junkie discs while you're at it.

Meaning? :?

It's a 93-94 canti era frame that canti's work just fine on. Isn't that how they spec'd and sold the bike in the first place? If I recall the guy that bought that exact frame from me in the first place was demanding that the canti's come with the frame :shock:

Re: Re:

Cantis were still all the range back then but vs are undeniably better brakes, after all if it was a 96 or 97 frame then it would of come with v brakes as standard. I ran cantis on my zaskar for 4 months and I didn't like them much, they're harder to set up and not as strong. If I have got space on the steerer for a hanger it would have to be one with a curved noodle, in which case I'd have a long cable awkwardly routed around the front end. Sure I'm a fan of originality but v brakes are a far more convenient option

Re:

So are you regretting your choice of fork yet? I still have a plush Manitou III if you want to go back that route.

Re:

Nope, I changed from a manitou fork because they are flexy

Maybe if your 77kgs or more. Carry on though. Still looking good.

Like the fork!

My 96 Zaskar seems to be routed for canti's rather than v-brakes. I've fitted it with v-brakes, but canti's seem to be the natural choice for it.
