As above, your brakes might be adjustable enough to reach the rim, might not. A recent rebuild of al old bike for me meant whole new brake calipers. You want "long reach," and your selection will be very small.

You are putting a lot of money and energy into this old bike and unless it holds some sentimental value, I would have second thoughts. What is your budget? Hint: you are way over!
