Hi, group, I just installed a set of tektro R538 "big mouth 57" brake calipers on my wife's Ebisu which should take 700x28C tires with fenders. However, because the bottom of the caliper arms stick out below the brake bolt quite a bit to further limit the tire clearance. Currently the bike has 700x28c pasela tg tires on (which actually measures 25.5mm on Mavic Open pro rims) and I doubt I can even put 35mm fenders on!
I know the benefit of these "big mouth" brakes is that it opens wide enough for wide tires to come off without deflating, but are there other long (47-57mm) long reach brakes that have caliper arms sticking down less beyond the brake bolt? Does this make sense to anyone? thanks, franklyn --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
