Re: Re:
c 2 are closed I m not sure if any other models are closed also
I need a little help with the mounts
my fork is IS mount so I would be able to use an is mount caliper that allows you to run a 205 disc (what number caliper is needed)
the frame uses a floating brake arm that is post mount
a post mount caliper bolts straight onto the arm an a 205 disc is used if I was to use an is caliper with a post mount adaptor it would put the caliper too high above the rotor
would be a lot easier using two post mount calipers an a adaptor on the front

Re:
You won't get a post mount C2.
If the goal is to be retro-ish or have a matching cockpit you can run levers from that generation that will look almost identical but one for closed and one for open....then run an more modern open calliper on the rear (M4 silver callipers are probably the oldest in post mount)

Open lever (black cap, no adjustment)
Closed lever (Silver pad distance adjuster)

Which one is it, as theres 3 No9's although ones not stamped 9. The No9 is I think 61mm,then theres a 9:74 which I think is the PM for 165mm, and a last which is 11:74 but I think its really a 9:74 but for a 185mm.
I should have a pair of these :? At least a front half and a full caliper.
Without taking them apart again, I reckon the complete is very lovely condition and the front half is in quite lovely condition.
