Oh, terminology! Vernacular! I need a brand new bicycling dictionary.

@Mondo734, yes I guess that's what I'm thinking. Like this: http://www.cyclecomponents.com/cgi-b...tnr=SHI1488-Fr

@xenologer i want to avoid the (what I call V-brake) setup. I much prefer the one in the link here. More "road bike-y".

Thanks all! I'm learning by doing and typing, so all this is very, very helpful.
