Cantis ID
 
Found a set of cantis at my local bike kitchen this morning. Might be a Dia Compe knock off. Picked em up as it's rare to find 4 of any cantis in that bin and I've got a vintage MTB build coming up. Only logo is on the bolts. It's either a "V" or a "CL" depending on it's orientation. Anyone recognize them? Looked through velobase to no avail.

Looks to me like Chang Star or similar. Agree that it’s a Dia Compe knockoff.

Got springs?

Agreed. The cable binder bolt is typical of Chang Star.
