I recently bought some Dia Compe BRS 100 brakes, due to the massively techincal reason that they're red. Unfortunately the screw in the back doesn't fit in the frame.
My flatmate suggested getting the back of the frame insert drilled and I've been quoted a price from Hackney Central Bikes and Look Mum No Hand! But Micycle said they could but wouldn't because it would weaken the frame too much.
Does anyone have any opinions on this? Sorry if this is a lame question but I've got little idea about these things so help would be appreciated.
