Help-what does FFS mean in respect to BMX brake calipers.I need some very long reach sidepull brakes for a road bike project-26" wheels on 700c frame-.The catalog shows 2 calipers-identical-except one is FFS.Now I'm assuming one is a front,one is a rear-WTF- does FFS mean-front for sure??How will they differ?Thanks.Charlie
PS Which old style sidepulls are longest-I need about 95mm-or at least enough room on the caliper arm to grind the slot to 95mm.
