Although I'm a big fan of cantis, I would say go for mini-V, if the clearance is enough.

I recently replaced the cantilever brakes on my Trek 520 with a pair of Shimano BR-R353 mini-v brakes, and they have been really good so far in combination with tiagra 4700 STIs. I find them more powerful than Tektros rx5 and they offer good modulation too imo, and of course very easy to set up compared to cantis.

@tom-g
also need suggestions for brakes. hanger for cantis on rear, so leaning towards them. However, mini v seem like the simpler more cost efficient option
