Reading more into cantilever brakes, it does sound like I've gone for a terrible set? Wide profile > less braking power, and I don't need the mud clearance of the wide calipers. Worst of both worlds. Inability to adjust toe in of the brakes No up/down adjustment. Does that sound right? If so they do sound shit...

Don't forget straddle cable length, shorter straddle cable = take less pull to get the braking power, so keep them short if possible.
Also this should help;

As for the rack, get the rack first before the bag.
