Does anybody recognise these?

Does anybody recognise these? They obviously came with some brakes at one point or were spares for them, but for the life of me i cant now remember what...

Sorting stuff and they might be just what somebody needs.....if i new where they came off!

Cheers

Dia compe or Weinmann q/r. To the best of my knowledge, the white capped parts look like they could be off of weinmann 500 side pulls.

If you slide the flat bits on to the bits with the white caps then slide the adjuster bits through the hole then voila...

They fit together......the white bit is a cover over the new nut....

 

[Tootyred]

Sorry, i should have put one together to start with to photo them.......that bit i understand! Its more what model are they off

 

[KermitGKona88]

As stated above pretty much any brake that uses an adjuster up top to turn it into a QR brake.

Maybe they are universal then....i have no idea where they even came from....

Pretty sure Dia compe just checked some weinmann, very different. As to model I am clueless

Could be either Dia-Compe or Weinmann as the two companies cross-licenced their patents for decades. There were many designs of the caliper mounted quick release over the years - single plate, twin plate, adjuster mounted and clamp mounted, you'll find all sorts out there. I'm pretty certain that they were offered by RJ Chicken in their Weinmann accessories back in the early 1980s.
