I haven't ridden a bike with side-pull brakes for 20 odd years when I had a set of truly awful Weinmann 500 brakes, which were and absolute pain to set so they sprung evenly either side of the rim without rubbing and would bring you not so safely to halt at a very leisurely pace, usually in about 1 calendar month.
If what I have in mind ever comes to anything, I'll need some fairly long drop callipers, maybe something like this: http://www.fixedgearfrenzy.com/tektro-r ... black.html. Are these going to be any better than the stuff from yesteryear?
