Okay guys here is the situation. Today while installing new brake cables and housing on a recently purchased Schwinn Speedster I managed to brake the bolt and nut that locks the brake cable into the caliper. You know, the one with a hole in the middle of it that secures the cable to the caliper, the one that is critical to making the brakes work, the one that if you don't have makes your brakes interesting paper weights? If any one out there has one for sale I would like to purchase one. If you have more than one for sale, I would like to buy three of them. Please PM me if you have any. I could just buy new brakes, but I don't wanna. and would rather repair what I have.

Thanks,

Erik

Or if anyone has a spare front caliper for a 1971 Speedster I would be interested.

Damn it, can't believe I broke that F#$!ing bolt.

what does it (the caliper) look like? I've got some old schtuff lying around.
I've got lots of misc bolts and stuff, too.

Your LBS will probably have one for a buck or two.

Thank you so much Johnny Alien et al, that site has exactly what I am looking for. I will check the LBS first though. I just assumed since the brakes are ancient that parts were hard to come by, I stand corrected.
