• My wife’s road bike has average to rubbish rim brakes. It lives in Spain so I am with it for 2 more days then won’t see it for another year.
    I suspect it has long drop brakes but how do I check? I want to try to get some better brakes when we are home ready to take and fit next year.
    Thanks

  • Measure from centre of brake mount hole to centre of braking surface on rim, that will give you the middle of the range of brake arms that will work.
