>>1102279Good memory, yeah, it did - this is the pic I always used to post. I got frustrated with them and switched to canti brakes
Big issue is that they required constant adjustment - the motion ratio is super low, so you've gotta set the pads suuuper close to the rim. Pads wear just a little bit, suddenly you're grabbing the levers all the way to the bars and still not stopping great.
And if you get grit somewhere and one pad starts rubbing mid-ride? You need a big-ass allen key and a 15mm wrench to adjust the spring tension. Lolno
I picked up an old set of XTR M900 canti brakes, stuck some Koolstop pads on them and they work GREAT.
