I run a u-brake on my rockhopper, It's a bmx brake Dia Tech made by Dia-Compe. Not a whole hot of room for bigger tires and these are not super wide (2.0 Bontrager) And to whomever told you that u brakes weren't strong, was fulla brown stuff.
I think have an exage ubrake you can have for the shipping, but I'll have to look in the bins.
EDIT: Meant to say, this brake is a knockoff of a fly.

May I ask you a question? I bought this frame without a headset and since it's french brand I have a suspicion - it fits french headset or ISO?

 

[Tootyred]

Measure the crown race. ......easiest way.

Iso is standard size....26.4mm

Jis is 27.0mm

Unless its old old old french, its unlikely to be french size..
