Anyone got tips for setting up canti brakes properly? I lowered the yoke which seemed to help but they're still pretty shocking... Have burned through the blocks in only a couple of weeks so I'll be getting new ones soon - worth splashing out?

Plenty of tips on the 'net. It takes time to set them up, but they are truly awful in the wet. Toe in and as close to the rim as possible I found and only use a decent set. I had TRP EuroX on my CX9 which were good in the dry.

Thanks for the tips on the Spyre brakes.
I'm still undecided on those or the Hy-Rd as they have very mixed reviews on the few I have found and if anyone here has them then that would be a good start.
