@nothingfuture @mhoye @tk @cycling @mastobikes I've never really felt limited by my canti and centrepull brakes. V-brakes tend to be too grabby for my taste.
Adjusting the cantis I found that there's such a thing as too much and too little mechanical advantage. And in between, there's a sweet spot. Discs apparently have much more mechanical advantage, at the cost of having a tiny range of travel of the pads. Which makes them tricky to adjust, in their own way. >
