Is arm length related to cable pull?

It's all related to 'mechanical advantage'.

Read: http://sheldonbrown.com/cantilever-geometry.html
Then the article on direct pull/(full size) v-brakes: http://sheldonbrown.com/canti-direct.html

Should cover enough for you to figure out how.

Ta

Acquired Tektro RX6 from Condor. Came home to install them and stripped BOTH (yes both) nuts of the rear brake ..

Will take it to @edscoble at LCW tomorrow morning to get them out.

They look like they will work for the clearance now just hope the cable pull works with the levers.
