Cantilever brake Question?

Question

I have A 1991 Raleigh Technium. The holes to mount the cantilever spring on the frame are on the outside, and I cant get the new brake set to fit. the spring holes on the front fork are on the inside and I had no problem mounting them. Any Ideas on how to acquire proper part?

Answer 1

Yep, I get the problem.

Unfortunately you are out of luck unless you can find exact replacements.

Answer 2

You might want too check with some bike shops. Some shops like Dud Thames in Tampa take trades on bicycles and keep parts off the bikes for just such things and it's amazing what they keep in the backroom and what you can find and I'm sure there not the only bike shop that does that kind of thing.
