I'm curious about others' opinions about the IRD Cafam/Cafam2. I've used a fair number of cantis, have never been able to set them up well with drop levers myself (a deficiency shared by some of the local shops I've used; so perhaps the fault lies in some of the designs), but the best brakes I can remember using were the IRDs set up by Rivendell staff with salmon Kool Stop pads on my Sam Hillborne. For power, modulation, and feel, these were near perfect -- and I have used many types and brands of brakes.
I seem to recall that adjusting pads on these IRDs was no more difficult than XT or Dia Compe cantis of the ealy 90s.
