If it is all original in size then there must be a size for the brake calipers but I can't find them in the parts boxes at the vintage bike shop nor can I find any reference online. I acquired a set of weinmann 610 brakes today. Will these work? It needs a long reach. I think it had fenders originally but I started out with just the frame. The frame was awesome and so lightweight I couldn't say no to the project. If anyone knows the answer to the brakes please help.
