Tektro CR720 Cantilever Brake

The CR720 is a great addition to your CX or touring bike. These affordable cantis offer great stopping power, easy adjustment and classic style, making them one of the best deals on the market.

The Forged aluminum arms are strong and light. Simple coil springs also help keep the weight down, while allowing for snappy, reliable braking action. Dual micro-adjust screws have also been added to allow fine-tuned adjustments to spring tension for perfect pad centering.

Tektro includes cartridge pads and holders. The holders accept Shimano-type inserts and use a series of concave/concave washers for easy toe-in and rim clearance adjustment. A deluxe locking straddle wire carrier is also included for a further degree of adjustability and style.

The Tektro CR720 Cantilever Brakes are sold in individually (per wheel). These brakes can be run front or rear. Since the pads come pre-installed for rear use, they will need to be swapped for front applications. Available in Black or Silver. 121g/wheel.
