Dear community,

do you have a go to replacement part for Weinmann Symetric single-pivot brakes? Problem is, modern rim brakes don’t fit the mount or are not available with long enough legs for my old city bike frames.

Do you just try got get canti-compatible frames instead?

    tektro r559 nutted is usually an option for such an upgrade. r539 has shorter reach if needed

    sure, preference for frames with canti-post but it is a big limiting factor. some touring frames from the 80s come with posts but center pull caliper were used earlier
