700D rim setup on a 26" MTB frame
I recently bought a pair of 700D rims that were setup on early nineties GT Tachyon or Continuum with the intent of using them on one of my 26" vintage MTBs.
Assuming the frame has the clearance to take these rims, the remaining headache is finding brakes (preferably cantilever setup) that will fit on these rims.
Can anyone shed some light on possible options of adapters or specific cantilever designs that have enough adjustment to fit on these 700 D rims.
BTW for those not familiar with this size, 700D is essentially a 650B wheel that is about 3mm wider in diameter than a 650B.
Many thanks
