Hope that someone out there has restored or worked on one of either a Hutch Trickstar II or an 87 GT Peformer - my issue is what sort of brake caliper to fit as a rear brake? The brake caliper is located under the rear stays rather than behind the seatpost

Since I haven't come across a frame that has this rear caliper configuration I wondered what to fit - I'm guessing a standard caliper wouldn't work?

Thanks in advance for any info.
