Item #LS-9227RB: Designed for old style bicycles, where the caliper is held on with an external nut (not a recessed nut), has extra long reach (73mm maximum reach, center of pivot bolt to center of brake shoe); it is wide enough to accommodate fenders and up to 42mm wide tires. This is a nice quality set at a reasonable price. Forged, polished aluminum calipers and brake pad holders. Slip in brake pads are replaceable with Shimano dual pivot brake pad inserts. Long travel quick release provides wide opening for tire removal. Set includes one front brake caliper and one rear brake caliper. Applications are 1960s and early 70s road bikes that originally had center pull brakes or more recent road bikes where the wheels are being converted from 700c to 650b. Before ordering these calipers, please measure carefully from the center of the brake pivot bolt hole in the fork crown or the rear brake bridge to the center of the sidewall of the rim to determine what brake reach you need. ALSO make sure that your bike will accept brake calipers with external nuts as opposed to recessed nuts.
