That may have been your issue- since the lever part of the CR720's sticks out more horizontally than on other canti's I think they work better with the straddle hanger at a higher position than with other canti's. This is certainly true in my experience anyway. I like to have the straddle cable set up so that it makes about a 90 degree angle to the brake arm when the pad touches the rim. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
