I read that to and think it's a good idea. I know some folks are going to grumble but the Silver brakes work great and are so simple to set- up. The Silvers seem more appropriate given the SH seems more of a country bike than a touring or adventure bike. The Hunka seems great, like a Rivish Fargo although really the Fargo is more Rivsh than Salsish if you know what I mean. The Hunka would very nicely round out my Riv stable which has gotta bit out of hand lately with the acquisition of a QB. Perhaps I'll let go the Rambouillet and pick-up a Hunka at some point. --mike (who is wondering if this thread will now digress into yet another discussion on the merits and pitfalls of cantis and caliper brakes) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
