Help me choose the right brakes for my Dawes Galaxy.

Although it can mean you struggle to get a chubby tyre out.
The original brakes are superior to the ones currently fitted, and will work better, as well as look better

Any component maxed out to deal with a technical incompatibility makes me wince.
Like a m700 derailleur with a longer b- screw fitted to get it over a 40t cassette for one-by

Gonna save myself a headache and refit the original ones. Cheers guys! Much appreciate the help.

If going back to the original brakes what’s the optimal straddle hanger? I’m guessing it won’t be the button style?

These?

Doesn’t seem to be any genuine shimano ones for sale.
