Ya know its odd how some of us prefer cantis and others side/center pulls......I really like the ease of set up and brake pad switching of the side/centerpull brakes over cantis. I've owned/own both and don't see a difference in performance for the way I ride. Cantis seem fine for a bike make for really wide rubber but on the Hillborne I prefer the sidepull option. In my experience the biggest difference in performance I've seen comes from the type of pad one uses.
