STI brake shifters for cantilever brakes? I have a Jamis Aurora 2016:

Jamis Aurora

I'd quite like to convert it to have brake lever gear shifters (the shifters are on the end of the handlebar drops which I don't really like). But will they work with cantilever brakes? 

Does anyone have experience of doing this? Is it a lot of hassle?
Yes, they will work with most STI levers. Cantilevers and road calipers use the same cable pull. If you were ever to convert from cantilever to linear pull (v-brakes) then you would have to be more careful in matching them up.
