I have a 32 year old Klein MTB with Cantis that stops better and is far less of a pain in the arse than any of the disc brake bikes I own. The similarly-aged XT shifters also work better than a lot of modern shit. It's also bright pink which gives bonus points.
We've all fallen victim to Big Bike® propaganda. Good products have a long buying cycle so they have to think of new shit to sell to us mugs.
