BB7 mountain or road?
 
I have a bike that came with Cane Creek SCR-5 levers and SCX-5 cantilever brakes. I want to replace the front brake with a BB7. If I want to use the same levers, should I get the BB7 road or mountain?

Road, and be sure to "pre-load" the actuator arm before you tighten the cable-fixing bolt.
