Cheers! Am entirely unfamiliar with cantis (and have generally read about them being inferior to Vs/callipers), any reason why mafac in particular? I see some Aceras on sale for pretty cheap or some BR-CX50s for a bit more..

People don’t like canti because they don’t know how to set them up. After all v-brakes are cantilevers with a fixed MA.
I like wide profile cantilever brakes because I can always seem to get more power from them over the low profile versions. Tektro do a cr720 that I’ve always find good. The downside is the fixing bolts rust quickly but they could be replaced.

I’d just put some mafac cantis on or if your feeling flush some neo retros.
