I’m not happy with the old v-arm brakes on my 1995 Raleigh Chromoly M40 All-Terrain. I’m hoping something new will go on the mounting studs. There is an old adjustment tab with three different holes that I figure is for fixing the spring in such a way as to adjust the spring tension. But it was not in use with the brakes that originally came with the bike. So I put the parts back on in a different order to try to make use of this adjustment plate. I am going to try including some photos showing this as well as the way it is supposed to be assembled. Anyway, that was fun but pretty silly - and is only a slight improvement. I figure I might expect to be able to get something new that will fit on those studs. Any guidance on what to look for folks?
