Does anyone use/have experiance of them.
I am starting a self putting together of a new bike, I don't call it a self build because I am not actualy making the parts myself but merely attaching them to a frame.

I have decided to go for the centre pull calliper brakes which I beleive may be more popular in the U.S than here, I just want to clarify the detail of the cable stopper/hanger I am at the moment presuming it is the same as the one for the cantilever brake on an MTB. Or maybe there is a specific one designed for these brakes?
I am slightly concerned that I will be able to attach it to my stem some how? Are there different types for different headsets? i.e quill or the modern type with the star fangled nut?
Any help gratefully received.:thumbsup:

You can get the hangers for any headset type - it's just a spacer really....... You'll need a slightly wider one for MTB/modern frames.
