Un-Scientific Centerpull Brake Review

Thought I'd share this - I picked up a pair of Dia Compe Gran Compe centerpulls off Ebay. Seller bought them new and just about had a stroke getting them adjusted and gave up. I put them on my wife's Fuji so I could eventually move away from the 27" wheels. Overall they look nice and weren't really that difficult to adjust as long as you have a helper. They feel more solid than the Dia Comps they replaced, and in my brief testing was able to lock up and lay rubber. I don't know if these compare to the Paul brakes, but I paid 100 bucks for the pair and overall very happy with them.
