Just installed these:

My first cantis.

Piece of piss to install tbh, easier compared to mini V which is just a clusterfuck under the name of 'low maintenance'. They feel VERY close to DA with swissstop pads. Have few questions though, whos the canti god of this parish?

@M_V likely as he's a fierce defender of all thing Cantis, I can set it up decently, but there are time they're a nightmare to stop squealing (straddle cable act like a violin), and judder (longer straddle helped but some brakes come with a fixed length).

Haha, I saw @amey post and thought about recommending you! I do love them though, I've just built myself a klunker and it's #fullcanti !

I think I'm the same as you Ed, I can set them up alright but don't see myself as an expert on them.

One bit of advice I'd gie though is that (IMO) fixed length straddles, ie these things...

...are horrible bits of kit and belong nowhere other than the bin.
