    These are brand new, never fitted.

    Part of groupset but frame I'm using needs 57mm drop rear.

    Selling both for €50 or rear only €25.

    Do you have any pictures? Will these suit a 2010 trek 4.5 madone?

    @thehamo - I only need to fit a long drop brake at the rear and the equivalent quality brakes (Shimano R600 or R650) cost about €35-€40 each. I therefore need to get around €50 or I might well just use the 105 front and keep the rear as spare!

    @Simmo39 - I don't have pictures but these are brand new, same as this - http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=13602

    Yes, these will fit Trek Madone 4.5 and are an excellent upgrade. You will notice a huge difference, esp. on wet descents. A lot of mainstream manufacturers produce great bikes but skimp on the brakes to save money - Trek are one of these.

    I will withdraw my offer as thehamo had has made a similar offer. 40 does seem like a fair price through as the new ones will give the buyer the comfort of a warrantly etc.

    These work out at almost €60 with delivery but yes, I take your point, the difference is marginable. I see Ribble have the R650 brakes I need for just under €70 delivered. I need to think about it, but it probably makes more sense for me to just buy a rear brake and use the 105 front.

    Anyone just need a rear brake:)?

    Anyone want to offer €45:)? I'm in Foxrock, BTW.

    Thanks for the offer, thehamo. No one else has coming racing out of the woodwork waving two twenties and a fiver so I'm happy to accept your offer if you still want them? Thanks, Paul
