Looking at canti breaks they use middle pull on the cable which is all fine at the back but in the front that won't work with me having a rack and such.

Are the Avid SD7's still the best bang for the buck v-brake?

It can work. You mean because of the bracket that attaches to the brake hole in the fork? I drilled a hole in it an glued a tiny bit of outer brake cable in it, to guide the inner brake cable.

No, it's canti so it doesn't need a brake hole as such. However it could block the hole with the brakecable that pulls on the calipers.

Are there different kinds of cantilever brakes?

Calling on @edscoble and @mdcc_tester for this.
