Hey all,
Aside from reversing the pads there shouldn't be any other issues with my mounting a "rear" Cane Creek scx-5 canti on the front, correct? They seem to be identical. Anyone had any experience with this?

Thanks,
John

Other than the above mentioned pad issue, I didn't think they were front or rear specific.

yep, just switch the pads from left to right.
