Re. the Campag Record brake calipers: Read this carefully!
The front brake needs a fettle before fitting. The locking nuts on the back of the main pivot/mounting bolt and the secondary pivot have both cracked around the grub screw. I've replaced the one on the secondary pivot with a stainless nut (which many Campag skeleton brakes have), the one on the main bolt needs replacing, either from cannibalising another brake (seems to be a standard M7 x 1mm thread pitch nut), fabricating one, or buying the Campag spare (BR-RE204 I think). This needs fixing and checking before fitting!
