Dura Ace rear brake on Paris frame dont fit?


Mongoose!

Recommended Posts

The hole in my Paris frame (bridge between seat stays) (for the rear brake) to go through is not wide enough?

 

The brake goes through from the outstde, but the "Allen key bold" that has to go from the inside to fasten the brake is to big.

 

This is old Dura Ace 7800.

 

Do you get loose narrower bolds to fit in these brakes, so that the allen key bold will fit in the frame?

 

Don,t have money for Campaq at the moment ..... :blush:

 

Saw a lot of photos on the net where identical frames were fitted with these old Dura Ace group sets...

 

any advice welcome?

or you should be able to go to a bolt engineering place (depending on where you stay) and get one there. Just take a sample with and the spec you want.

DA will fit, make sure you are not using the front bolt on the back brake.

 

Otherwize, as Gummi said, LBS
