Wanted: Campag dual pivot rear brake, black

Does anyone have a modern Campagnolo dual pivot rear brake in black that they can pass on? Something like this

I'm currently running a Record Differential set (dual pivot front, mono pivot rear), but the clearance on the back is just too tight to allow me to run a 28mm tyre. Hopefully the dual pivot rear will give those extra few mm of clearance.

Hopefully the dual pivot rear will give those extra few mm of clearance.

Any particular reason to think that?

If anything, I'd have thought the single pivot would be slacker.

I'd measure up, before I paid out.

The mono-pivot caliper seems to have a narrower arch to it. Since the tyre is rubbing in its shoulders I need extra clearance on the width. In any case, dual-pivot on the rear wouldn't hurt, even if I have to stick with 25s, as I'm no lightweight.

Fair enough, although I may go via the try-it-out-and-then-re-sell-it-if-it-doesn't-work route.

Bump! I'm still keen to find one of these. Specifically a Record one with the bearings.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
