Very good to see Paul expanding its line of Centerpull brakes. Perhaps these will be called Competitions? If these new brakes have anything like the stopping power of the Racer, they will be a perfect choice for the Roadeo and people setting up their Hilsens and Hilbornes for pure road use. Centerpull brakes look great on Mixtes as well.
The new high polish version of the Paul Racer has me in quite a quandry. Cicli Polito will be putting together a road bike for me built to accommodate the 650b Hetres. After spending about 15 hours polishing a pair of Mafac Raids, I see on the Paul site they now sell high polish Racers. So do I go with the antique part or the modern variation? The world of high end bikes is so full of dilemnas! ;) On Nov 11, 2:01 am, Gino Zahnd <ginoza...@gmail.com> wrote: > Don't bother getting posts on your Ram. > > Paul will soon be releasing a new medium reach centerpull that, in my > opinion, is even better than the regular centerpull.
