I haven't used the pricier cantilevers from Rene Herse or Paul, so I can't compare to those, but I did install a new set of CX50s on my Sam. They work great. I had been running a set of Avid V brakes, and switched solely because I wanted to use different set of levers that worked better with my Albastache bars. The CX50s were easy to set up and stop every bit as well as the v brakes they replaced. They have a much better feel at the lever, though, compared to the v brakes.
It is my understanding that the only difference between the CX50 and CX70 are the color and the included pad holder on the CX70. So, you could essentially turn the 50 into a 70 by purchasing a pad holder after the original pads wear out. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
