  • TriRig Omega has a fixed distance from body to brake blocks and the whole brake slides up and down on the pivot bolt to adjust the reach. Campag Delta, Shimano BR-7300 etc. do too, but the TriRig is available and takes normal pads. Might solve your problem, although a new fork would probably be cheaper.

  • Cheers, some interesting options. Wanting to keep the original fork and (hard to tell just by looking) not sure that the Tririg would be slender enough even on the lowest setting.
    Beginning to think that a 20mm tyre is the way forward. Or a clamp-on brake.

    Or a single pivot 105 with the underside destroyed by bad filing.

  • Forgive me if you've already done so, but have you set up your current brake and seen if it fits then, rather than just having it 'loose'? You should gain a couple mm clearance under a dual caliper with it being cabled up by virtue of the way the arms move when they engage?

  • not sure that the Tririg would be slender enough even on the lowest setting

    If the brake pads hit the rim, the brake body will easily clear a 23C tyre, I've got about 5mm all round between my TriRig and a 700×22 Vittoria Diamante Radiale
