You probably need a new brake bolt, newer style brakes have recessed nuts while older ones have non recessed ones. I would have a look...

Entry level Shimano brakes are very good quality. Either that or a vintage pair of Exage or 105, probably about the same for cost...

It's in beautiful condition thanks to my grandad owning a bike shop in his early years! Thanks for the tips!

The Comete was sold in 1987-89 in the UK I believe. From the looks it doesn't look too broke! The fork should have a recessed allen key...

Thanks! Rides really smooth considering it's been sat in a garage for 30+ years... my grandad maintained it well. Thanks for the ideas!

Thank you mate, do I need to look for "older style" brakes or have things not changed as much as I imagine in that area?

Hey all, I was gifted my grandads beautiful Peugeot Comete Sprint bike which he rode around the UK for many years.... I am looking to...
