Although these^^ Tektro may not be the best mtb brake these days, think they’ll be fine for the genteel type of bike Oliver Schick rightly guessed they’re for. Want to fit canti mounts to the frame made for 700 hub brakes with close clearance, thinking I might put these on with posts around the 650b height, so I could use 700 and skinny tyres again without much fiddle.
But clearance around the rear brake is slightly tight. Do these cantis require very short straddles?
