Shimano Ultegra Cantilever Brake in Black?

[Deleted member 30479]

Hi all

I'm currently building up a Bob Jackson World Tour bike. Didn't quite finish it yet as I need some canti brakes. I'd like to get black canti brakes to match the rest of the components (mix of Shimano Ultegra and 105).

I've search online everywhere and can't find any Shimano Ultegra Cantilever brakes in Black! Only in Silver!

Any suggestions where I can find this?

Thanks!

Do the Cantis need to be new? Otherwise Shimano XT from the early 90s came in black and looked great too.

The model I was thinking of is Shimano Deore XT, BR-M734 (though there are others) and your best bet to is to find them Ebay.
