Canti or V-brake adapter

[michaux]

Thanks for the comments.
I am trying to modernise the bike and to get it to stop as well as my mountain bikes with V-brakes.
I have successfully modernised a more modern Moulton whose build and component quality was similar to British Leyland Cars. Just trying to replicate that rebuild.

Note to self... don't mess with the Moulton Crowd! :roll:

Seriously tho dude, if this is how stressed you get from something as trivial as someone using a picture of a bike, I would hate to think what you would be like on a really bad day! Some things in life are just not that important

Not all Moulton owners are alike (I hope). Some of us just like them because the bike (not the owner) is a bit wierd. In my case, as I work for a suspension (damper) manufacturer, a bike with suspension designed by Alec Moulton held some interest for me.
Please bear with me!

Just to get back on topic, the drop of dual pivots would be about 70mm and since I have (and know and have parts for and like) XT V-brakes, I would very much like to fit them.
Has anyone done this that could help (and not get upset)?
Thanks
