The road calipers on the bike shown in this thread are aftermarket. You can get Swifts built with road calipers from Peter (as distinct from Xootr). If you mean touring style centerpull cantis, you could mount cablehangers on the seattube and steerer tube, but why would anyone want centerpull cantis?
Presumably if one has road brifters you would need the cantilevers to maintain clearance for big tires and fenders.
