Wanted: Campagolo Nuevo Record brake callipers

Posted on
  • Hey

    I'm looking for a set of Campagnolo Nuovo Record brake callipers. The 'standard' reach of 47-57mm, rather than the 'short' reach of the time.

    Cheers

  • Nigel Scott at CampyOldy does a lot of this stuff and NR gear is his big enthusiasm. Have a look at www.campyoldy.co.uk.

  • hilary stone (member name 'hilarystone') had some for sale here last week.

    nigel scott's stock list is dwindling fast.

    Also look out for modolo brakes. They're better, and suit a campagnolo gruppo well.

  • Why do you say Modolo brakes are better? I just bought a rear Modolo from Hilary (rear wheel 700c on 27" frame), which I was going to fit until I sorted a Nuovo record set at a good price.

    Nigel doesn't have any CN in stock - also, I think being one of the very few established sellers of classic campag means he can charge an inflated price for some of the stuff.

  • Well someone in a pub told me ;)

  • I think if you expect to get vintage exotic stuff brand new you can expect to pay a bit more than LFGSS prices. However I don't think Nigel's prices are "inflated" (as in increased just because he can). I'd guess this stuff is pretty hard to track down and secure.

    If you want any old brakes or maybe to drop lucky, hang around on here and you'll get what you need cheap. If you want obscure and (in some quarters) highly-prized stuff, expect to have to pay for it. If you want to see real profiteering on old parts, get into old motor bikes or cars.

  • I've got a pair of NR callipers that are virtually NOS - they were fitted to a Moser show bike I bought a while back, never been ridden, just a few blemishes and minor grime from storage. Make me a (reasonable!) offer...?
