Wanted your unwanted about to be tossed in the trash useless single pivot side pull "sucicide brakes"!!!!!

OK now that I have your attention, I am rebuilding the Vento and I am trying to install some fenders on it. However they will not fit my beloved Chorus Monoplanor brakes.... so

I am looking for something like upperend Dia Compe or Suntour, Victory/Triomphe, maybe a older 600 like the EX series? I need room in the arch for a 45mm fender. The Suntour Alpha 5000 {a relabeled DC 400 I believe) calipers I have now seem to fit but I are missing the cable anchor hardware. Recessed is fine but I do have some of those quirky Rivendell adaptors so the even more useless nutted variety may work out too.

what do I have... I'll find something if the brakes are nice enough perhaps trade for some Mirage level Monoplanor style calipers.

Thanks
