I just installed a set of the Paul Racer M brakes, the center mount high polish one's, on my Rambouillet. Major piece of bike bling. They replaced a pair Tektro R538's. The Tektro's worked well and there was just enough clearance for Honjo 41mm fenders and Grand Bois 30's. That said, the Paul brakes are a nice upgrade: better clearance, more power and very pretty. Installation was pretty straight-forward once I found a rear cable hanger short enough for my 56cm frame and an in- line cable adjuster. I haven't fiddled too much with the brakes yet, not having had time to ride any significant distances, but I already like these brakes after a short trip around the block. The brake pads may need some toe-in still. Tomorrow or the next day should allow time for a full test ride.
I put together a set of photos on my Flickr. http://www.flickr.com/photos/27988...@n06/sets/72157623702627095/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
