I tried running Avid cantilevers (old school cyclocross and all that...) but had to switch to V-brakes. The cantees were awful. The front especially did not agree with the carbon fork... made it shimmy all over the place. Anyway, I run those roller adapters between my road levers and V-brakes and they work fine.
