Problem: I don't have any brakes!
The original plan was to reuse the V-brake/shifter combo that came with my mountain bike. You can see the right hand side one on the last picture.
Not having a new brake cable, I tried to reuse the old one but it's too short. So I don't know if it works yet.
My questions are:
Is it possible to use V-brake levers with cantilever brakes,
Is it possible to drive the rear and front mechs with indexed shifters? The rear cassette has 5 rings and the shifter 8 speeds, have i got any hope to make it work?
