Shimano Deerhead Canti-brake Schematic?
Anybody know where I can get a blow-up diagram of the Shimano BR-MC70 cantilever brake?
I've completely taken apart this bike and am in the process of rebuilding. I think I know but it would be nice to have a diagram just in case.

I know of no diagram for these, sorry, but they are fairly easy to figure out. These are my favorite brakes, I have 2 sets of them!
If you do a Google image search for "Shimano BR-MC70" , there's a few large photos available to show you how they look put together.
A Tip ..... when taking apart such items and have the benefit of TWO of them, take apart one at a time, so you can use the other as a guide.

I can't believe I'm resurrecting such an old thread, but I found Shimano's Service Instructions sheet for this classic canti break. For those of us refusing to let go of classic canti breaks, enjoy...
