Do you plan to off road on it? If the answer is "yes, extensively" then I'd get cantilevers for the mud clearance they offer. If you'll mainly use it on the road then mini vs offer much better braking performance. Planet X are doing these Tektro mini vs for £20. I've recently bought a pair and like them a lot, although braking was improved further with a pair of Swissstop green pads.
I'm using them with SRAM S500 levers on drop bars btw.
