@rossiny What was wrong with the old brakes? Were they ugly or just didn't stop well? Old brake pads will make an otherwise well performing brake perform poorly. If you are want modern braking performance, another thing to consider is that single pivots will not perform as well as modern dual pivots and all dual pivots are recessed bolt except for the tektros mentioned above. Some single pivots are great and can be tuned to work well with new pads, cable and a good setup, but they still won't be dual pivots.
