Excuse my ignorance, but can someone help me.... If one has old centre pull brakes like the ones in the picture on a 60s/70s frame, and running the origanal 27" wheels but wanted to put on newer brakes, and run cross top levers what should I be looking for in the brakes... am I right in saying that I would need bolt on rather then allen key fitting ones...? but apart from that are there any other major issues i should be looking for in getting new ones? also any suggestions on which ones would be great!
Thanks loads in advance....
H
