Dia Compe Brake Caliper
« on: March 27, 2009, 06:30 PM »
Hi,

I've just bought a Dia Compe MX1000 brake caliper for my Laserlite but I think I may have buggered this up a bit!  :'(

The brake bridge on the frame is flat and this caliper now looks suspiciously like a front brake, not a rear as the bolt is wayyyyy too long. Is there an easy way to use this on the bike, or is it back to the drawing board to find a rear brake?

Thanks

If you need a rear spindle I have a spare I wouild sell or swap for your front?  They are dead easy to swap over.
