Cantilever & V Brakes

Cantilever brakes, once set up correctly, offer simple braking and generous mud clearance making them the brake of choice for Cyclocross riders, many stick to ‘Cantis’ over disc brakes. V Brakes also offer good clearance and were the brake of choice on the MTB scene before discs became widely available. Merlin stock Avid and Tektro brakes.
