Q: Shimano cantilever straddle cable length?
I'm thinking of using some Shimano BR-550's on a road bike with Alex
DM-18 rims. I can pick one of several fixed straddle cables. Which one? Is it related to rim width, where we want length that produces a specific angle based on brake model? Does that mean the geometry won't be quite right when switching to another rim? I checked the Sheldon stuff but don't have enough experience to pick the right one. Thanks!
