I have them on my 73 Nishiki. They aren't the most visually appealing thing ever, but if you keep your brakes adjusted they will stop you just fine. I have had no problem bringing my 200 lb carcass and bike to a stop with them, but having said that there is no place for them on my Paramounts, at least the ones that use Weinmann brakes.
