The previous replies don't address your question as I read it ...

I presume the post are the same diameter, if that is the question.

A fork that has "cantilever" braze-ons situated on the fork for use with MAFAC centerpulls will not work with cantilever brakes (as noted); but, should work with U-brakes and possibly roller-cam brakes.
