  1. I'm thinking of ditching my FrankenJudy for a newer fork, but I want to
    stick with old-style (pre-V) cantilever brakes. I've heard cable stops
    are available, that clamp to the brake arches of some newer forks. Can
    anyone confirm this? What's out there, and for which forks?

    Why not a brake booster type thing, with a cable stop facing rearward?

    Redline has a cable sotp for their cross frames that bolts onto the
    fork, I think it'll work for a shock and cantis. I have a couple, I'll
    send ya one if you want to try it.

    Does it clamp around, or bolt into a hole on the brake arch?

    Thanks,
