I’m all ears to ideas, mini v’s sounds interesting. I’ll look into that thanks.
As I said upthread I won’t actually work on this project until next spring, so plenty of time to ruminate.
650b sounds interesting though now. Would a disk tab braze on well to a buttressed triangle? I could potentially contemplate the cost if it means I have something reliable that’ll last and last...

Yeah, but my point is that disks always have the same or better clearance than any rim brake (plus you could do 650b and stuff). But sounds like you know what you want and I'm not one to dissuade people from slightly strange plans so go for it.
You could also try mini-Vs, there's some discussion in this thread I think. Most of the same advantages of cantis but much better braking.
