I use the touring brake up front when I run them for mountain mountain
bikes and loaded tourers due to higher mechanical advantage, as already
mentioned.
I will often run the Neo-Retro up front with a Touring in the rear for
Rando, light touring and city bikes where that is less important to
Scott, I’ve used both, and as hard as I’ve tried to discern a functional
difference, I honestly just couldn’t. They felt the same to me. Both felt
great and had plenty of stopping force. I don’t know if this is because of
they way each was set up and dialed in. But neither lacked anything. I
I’ve used both, prefer the Tourings due to higher mechanical advantage. Now I run Motolites which are even better. Maybe I’m just bad at setting up cantis but switching to linear pull brakes was a big upgrade for me. Jay LonnerBellingham, WASent from my Atari 400On Jan 20, 2023, at 3:12 PM,
If you had to choose between the Paul Touring Canti or the Neo-Retro for a
front brake, which would you pick and why?
Curious about how much functional difference exists between the 2 models.
Thanks,
Scott
