I have a number of variations of Scott SEs and thought I had heard in the past that the big barreled ones were for rear use only. I have the SunTour variants too, with the more obvious canti style fronts, but recently I picked up two pairs of Scott SE big barreled type in a bright green finish. One pair was labeled 'rear' and the other pair 'front' but both pairs looked identical. Anyways they're on the bike now and of course, the front pair are a tad grabby and vicious (for cantis)! Anyone any thoughts or knowledge on SEs being used on the front end??
Incidentally, I also have a pair of the original Pedersens which have a smaller barrel and the packaging demonstrates they are designed as a front brake - so the underlying mechanical theory cannot have been declared fit for rear use from the outset (pre-licensing).
