Yes for cantis, not for most v brakes. Get some that are not low low profile, that is, get some
where the arms stick out a bit-

You can see a good example of this combination working well on a Novara Randonee at URL:

the right travel for the pull provided with the Sora levers. Another good example is at URL:

We've found the Ritchey cantis to work very well with STI levers.

Avid Shorty cantis and STI (105 and Shorty 4 in the linked photo below) work well too:

A while back I put a pair of Sora levers on my girlfriend's Trek 420 equipped with Shimano BR-MT62
cantis. Last summer she made it down Vail Pass and Swan Mountain Road (among other interesting
places) without killing herself.
