long reach brakes

patrick151 · 2011-09-04 21:18:04

Hi guys, I'm modernising an old peugeot bike i was got, but with its new 700c rims there is ~68mm gap from the brake mount to the braking surface so does anyone know where i can get a long reach brake for it? I want something new, but would even settle for some second hand if i have to ps. already tried ontrack in town…

sjscycles.com have extra long drop calipers that go to 73mm.
