  1. Hi

    I've noticed Cyclo Cross bikes are still equiped with Cantilever brakes despite the common use of v-brakes in MTB or touring bikes nowadays for example. Which one works better ?

    Thanks

    cantilevers work road brake levers, vbrakes need a different leverage ratio that road levers dont provide....

    thats all i know, and i think thats all there is to it as well. 🙂
