Hi.
The bike looks nice,but Endrick rims with rod-operated brakes(rubber blocks)? Potentially dangerous,I think. Has any one tried something like this before? 🤔

Cheers and take care.

Yikes. Rod brakes on Endrick rims seems like a very bad idea to me. I wouldn't consider it rideable. Seems like a lot of money for a repainted mid 50s Rudge with the wrong wheels, a Hercules crank and an incorrect 60s swept wing chainguard.
