original self energising cantis

[colinr]

Dug these out of the NOS parts cupboard to share with you.
These were the original self energising cantis before suntour ones
I believe that pederson sold the patent onto suntour.
I remember them back in the late 80s , they can be a bit lethal and grabby,best avoided on the front

nice. Not seen the originals before. I have some Suntour ones which are self energising only on the rear I imagine for the reason you give.

I had 2 sets of rears on my old Pace (due to the front brake being on the back of the fork), and it was fine!

There was a single pair for sale on here a few months ago,

These were the only canti I wanted to uprgarde to, back in the very early 90's and never got round to it, and yeah they definitely sold out that part to Suntour

Always searching, but I never find any :cry: :cry: :cry:

They have matching fronts too but don't always list them. I bought rears from them last year and they messed up and sent fronts. Then they sent 2 sets of rears with a bolt missing. Then they sent another sent of fronts so I got 2 COMPLETE sets!

There's this set of matching fronts from a private seller too: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SUNTOUR-SC-FRONT- ... 20b25b9e38

The ones posted by the private seller in the second link are the xc pro
CT- XP00 non energising version , Not as common as the energising version,only around from 90-92 I think. I have full 1990-91 xc-pro groupo
on my attitude and these are the versions on there, they have a large nut
on one the cantis which sits between stud and canti.These were lighter than the energising version.

I dont think those are the first version of pedersen , there was a version before that .
