OK, I needed some calipers for a 27" to 700c conversion and bought two of these. They have a reach of 57 to 75mm.
Dia Compe only did these in a recessed bolt version so I had to buy two recessed fronts. (a recessed front's bolt is the same length as an old fashioned full length rear so that one goes straight on a frame with a nyloc nut, as shown) To get the front to fit, you have to drill your forks rear bolt hole out to 8mm so the recessed bolt fits (supplied and pictured)
I tried these on a bike I was building, at the time, but I ended up using centre-pulls instead. I can't seem to find one set of pads but I should have some (used) black cartridge pads somewhere which will fit.
I'd like £17.85 posted for both or £10 each for them...
