How do you run rear cantilever brakes if there is no cable hanger brazed onto the frame?
simple, you install a Kelly “Canti Basket” on the seat pinch bolt.
its as simple as it sounds. we came up with this little widget back in the late 90’s and its the perfect solution to the problem if you don’t have a cable stop tower already mounted to your seat stays.
the other nice thing about this product is it is easily removable and allows you the flexibility to run a cantilever or v-brake without having to commit to a permanent braze on on the seat stay bridge… a much better solution for those of you who are on the fence, or simply like the cleaner look of less stuff brazed onto your frame.. especially when (not if) it becomes obsolete.
available in black or silver and are available right here for only $15 on the Kelly website on our products page…. get your Canti Basket today!

Custom stem program is alive and well at Kelly.
we built this old school custom stem for a guy to run on one of our older 26″ Deluxe mountain bikes. in this new era of removable cap alloy and carbon fiber stems you would think that a steel stem would be obsolete – but thats just not true. given the newer handlebar clamp diameters and designs its very practical to go back to the no-removable cap stem due to its easy fit where the clamp is much bigger so it clears the bends of the newer bars yet has the precise fit where its needed.
here are a few pictures of one stem that will go with the rigid fork that is pictured below on one of our older hardtails… custom stem pricing begins at $150 for black and custom upgrades are always available.

we don’t discriminate age here at Kelly….
i really enjoy building bikes for all kinds of people, but every once in a while one of these cool projects comes along where i get to build for a young aspiring rider like 10 year old Luke Mabry of Las Vegas Nevada, who simply enjoys going to the cyclocross races with his dad (to race) and is now taking the next step to upgrade his ride – that being his new Kelly V53 Knobby X – stealth orange….
ive always believed that a family that plays together – stays together, so im glad to be a part of this family project and wish the Mabry’s a safe and fun cross season… knobby on Luke!
