Which brakes?

(1/3) > >>

insectbones:
Hey guys, slowly collecting parts for a couple of '80 Motomag builds.....

So which brakes are better, Dia-compe 890 or the Weinmann equivalent?

Good one that. Had Weinmanns and they were good. Diacompe prob more inline with a usa built bike.

BENDYCAT ELEVENTEEN:
I went with dia compe's and they work fine - also weinmann 974's do a great job

both have the right look

pickle:
unless you're using motomags then i'd go with no calipers at all and just have the coaster  :daumenhoch:

MartyC:
What Rob said or a Shimano Tourney caliper and a pre bent brake lever...
