First off, I know, go with mini-vee's. I bought some Campy (not sure who makes them in Taiwan) cantilevers to go on a Serotta CDA cross frame. The rears seem OK. The fronts on a Ritchey cross fork are loose, there is about a .5mm play front to back when the screw is tight. Do I just need to file the studs shorter.

Thanks,
Jeff

I've had that happen with a couple of brakes. Not a problem. You can either leave it as is, or you can slip a washer on. No need to file the posts.

Yep, posts a little to long. Washers on first maybe, find shorter posts, or if they work ok, nothing.

Made by Tektro, btw.
