I'm building up a rather vintage mountain bike frame with new(er) parts, most of the problems I've come across I've been able to bodge and over come, but this is something else. I bought some tektro v brakes as an upgrade for the old cantilevers but upon instaling them I reallised the "spring hole" is on the wrong side of the braze on ( its on the outside rather than the in). Is this a common problem and is there any solution? See pic for details: http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=qxtatv&s=6 . Cheers
