thanks for that picture & the "heads-up".

i saw some Paul centerpull brakes around the 200$ make and hoped there would be a more moderate way to stop!

Q: what does the designation "710" & "650" represent?

mine, the ones on the bike from the factory, are only stickered Raleigh. so i'm a bit at a loss how to put all this information in one sock.

btw: size aside, are sidepull brakes in any way inferior in performance than centerpull, or simply different?

thx
