My observations from a trial at cabling it up:
1) Canti hangers on a small frame are a pain to cable up
2) Cabling up canti brakes need about 3 pairs of hands
3) The front cantis are shuddering a bit, I'm assuming thats normal and I will need to toe in the pads?
4) Right shifter is buggered, which means I'll have to take it off and use a spare
5) Luckily, as I haven't installed the quick disconnect splitters yet, not quite as painful
I have another 7900 shifter that is mechanically fine, but visually poor. Anyone know how easy it might be to change the brake arm?
