I really do think they are worth the money and when/if you ever decide to
sell them you can recoup a lot of the cost back.
I've had the fortunate experience of using most of the current Paul brakes
at one time or another and I do think they all work really well. They work

I have a Crust Towel Rack bar on a cyclocross bike. I like it, but I have

IMHO and this is coming from the way I know I ride... the Cliffhangers are
not a good rim for a tire in the 2.8 inch range. I have Cliffhangers on my
Appaloosa running 57mm G Ones and I just don't see how a 2.8 would ride
well off road (it would be terribly balloon like), especially if you are
I don’t run fenders but my Appaloosa, 51cm with 650b Velocity Cliffhanger rims,
can run the 57mm Schwalbe G one with a bit of room for dirt and mud but not
room for fenders.
