That's bollocks, Ed. Calipers beat cantilevers all day long. I'd even put them above cable pull discs, which don't have the modulation of a well set up pair of calipers.

I don't think even modern day calipers is powerful enough, I forget to put Mini V which is definitely more powerful than cantilevers on the list.
I think it's best to says that calipers brake is the easiest to set up of them all which is why people get favourable result from it, and cantilevers (and cable pull disc) are the hardest.
