That means the Zeste should have a shorter cable and the other cantis should have a longer cable.

However, it is often unattainable on the rear brakes due to clearance issues at the cable stop. Now that you point it out, those straddle cables could probably use to be a little higher. That being said, they still brake fine as they are. If you're still interested in straddle cable height I wrote a fairly arduous blogpost about it a while ago:<br /><br />http://velo-orange.blogspot.com/2012/08/breaking-it-down-grand-cru-cantilever.html <br /><br />@Anon<br /><br />The pedals on the Pass Hunter with the Shimano group are a prototype of our new single sided platform pedals<br /><br />http://velo-orange.blogspot.com/2013/05/new-grand-cru-pedals-and-other-stuff.html<br /><br />VeloOrangehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06814029344407654254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-45427077054612122312013-11-05T08:54:15.774-05:002013-11-05T08:54:15.774-05:00@Anon,
