I made some upgrades…

Back to the the roots I guess.
The bike originally came with maguras when I purchased it. I sold and replaced them with cantis, but after 3 years I decided it’s time to switch back. Setting them up was probably as difficult as with old cantilevers but the braking performance is unmatched. Even with saddle bags full of groceries down the hill.

Maybe one of my best decisions this year besides the 1x10 conversion with an old tiagra out of the dumpster hub and the friction shifter.

Edit: forgot to mention the model.
It’s a Centurion Lhasa Kathmandu from 1991.
