Brake reach problem

[pigman]

Campag also did a longer reach gran sport caliper, size as the record version. My mate had some circa 1981

I've installed the drop bolt on the bike, took me some time and a lot of swearing but it worked out well! As lewisfoto said, it added some flex on the braking performance, but it still works very nicely. I'll keep this solution until I find some cheap long reach GS or record calipers!

Re: Brake drop bolt DIY

Here is my take on Sheldon Brown type suggestion to solve this problem. Works perfect on my fixie/single speed.
