Long reach brake calipers

[danshutt]

I'm building up an Ian May frame that I bought via this forum (thank you!) and am wondering if anyone has a pair of long reach calipers lying around - the older the vintage, the better

The frame was intended for 27 inch wheels, hence the reach issue

Hi sorry I’ve not got any but I had the same problem myself and drop bolts worked a treat I luckily only needed one on the back. I bought it off EBay not cheap but solved the problem.

I've got a new set of tectros and also got some long reach mafac and weinmman centre pulls

Re:

they sound good - I'd take one for the front as i've now put a drop bolt on the back (homemade). Would you consider selling 1x front long reach, maybe a dual pivot if you have one?

sure I'll just check my stock as I have odd ones as well

Here you go 1 long reach Tektro 556 front calliper its the longest one they do so should fit nicely its also bolt fitment so will do both Allen key and bolt fitment
