Sorted Suntour U-Brake

[Once A Hero]

If there is such a thing, I’m looking for a complete, working, good condition Suntour U-brake.
Ideally from as high up the range as possible if they did offer more than one.
Black in colour would be a bonus.

What’s out there?

I’m not sure there ever was one. The first Suntour XC Pro equipped U-brake Zaskars came with a Dia-Compe (AD990?)

That might be what I’ve seen then. And as it happens it’s for a Zaskar.

Also saw an ‘89 (I think) Muddy Fox with fully Suntour XCE group - and a chainstay U-Brake, but can’t see what the make is.

Suntour only did rollercams

I have a couple of late 80s AD990s if that is what you are after

Sounds like it might be - could you send me some pics and prices please?

Here go..one of each flavour. Both from 1988. Original pads on both which look virtually unused. Some paint missing on the black set. £20 each plus post and packaging ..say £23.50

I have a 993/994 u brake on my Zaskar. There's been a "NOS" one for sale on eBay for years. Price is...prohibitive.

@Antstark cheers!
Now I have a dilemma - do I want a silver or black item?!?
Leaning towards black, I’ll message you
