I have a single ratty Paul Motolite that is going on the rear. I'd like to find another v-brake or canti that will make people tut and shake their heads slowly when looking at this thing. Form over function! Any condition! Cheers!

Keep in mind V-brakes and cantis have different cable pull.

If you're going to run flat bars with adjustable levers, I never said anything.

Cheers, that’s a good point: Tektro 520s on a Cowbell, with a Monkey Bar fall back if I can’t get on with a drop bar.

Working with an old DX (M600) for now because I like the straight lines/blocky look, still interested in What Have You.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
