Control Tech Cantilever brakes + parts
These are unique in they don't use springs attached to the posts, the arms float and the spring is in the straddle. It looks to me like there's 2 complete sets here in the silver ones. The black set and silver with white bushing are missing the tophats. I think the black bushings are the earlier model and white is the later production. A couple extra mushroom caps and straddles. The oldschool mtb guys go crazy over these, asking huge prices. Any interest at $115 delivered in the US?
