How much more powerful?




- there is no way to actually know because a huge unknown in all this is how the canti brakes are set up. A lot are underwhelming due to not being ideally set up.
- Vbrakes and Mini-Vbrakes are usually stronger than canti brakes in their initial bite/grip. This is a generalization, but it also continues to be said for a reason.
- A lot of ground can be made up between poorly performing canti brakes and Vbrakes by using quality pads with the canti brakes.


Paul minimotos cost $360 for a pair.
Tektro rx1 brakes cost $40-50 for a pair. Quality pads cost $20. So $60-70 for a full setup.
...just saying.
