The top of the mountain and the greatest bike ever built. When I hear car people talk about the “Countach poster on the wall” that drove an obsession, Otto is my equivalent. That bike and her long success on it made me believe that there was room for unorthodoxy in cycling and has kept me attached to the weirder side of this habit for almost 40 years.

Does anyone have experience with that style brake? Do they work well? The mounts look higher than a cantilever mount unless I am not seeing it right
