My Zippo /87 Master Rep 2009 Update
Biggeorge:
its snafus version of a london mod, i use a london mod on my sports, they work really well. i use fly brakes and dia compe box brakes as well on the sports.
you can get the dia compe ones with the angled arms for the chainstays from cyclesport (01476 590 550) for 20 quid!
they are really good. I recommend the clear brake pads stodgy does in the rad shop, very very good pads.
the brake on the revo is a dia compe hombre, i use it as the cable pull is straight, the angled arms brakes work better on the sports due to the angle of the cable from the london mod.
heres a pic of my setup, there are more in the museum.
I think youll need some sort of nipple clamp to get the stock sport brake to work but i wouldnt bother, theyre not great and theres better brakes out there for a tenner!
Biggeorge:
