Excuse my ignorance... Do cantilever and centerpull brakes use the same frame mounts?
Yes and no. Paul Racers use standard (i.e., Mafac) cantilever posts. Other centerpulls (Mafac, Diacompe, ReneHerse) use a mounting post that is different from a cantilever post.
Or does a bike have to be purpose built for centerpulls?
Yes,. for braze-on centerpulls. Regardless of whether the post is the same or not, the location of the post is very different for centerpulls vs cantilevers.
You can, however, use a bolt-on centerpull on a bike equipped with brazed-on cantilever posts, if there's a center hole.
