Dia-Compe 1080 long reach brake caliperThis is the brake you need for many of those cruiser frames that originally had a coaster brake rear wheel. The forks tended to a little longer to leave a larger gap for a fender, therefore the reach needed to switch to a hand brake tends to be much longer than a regular BMX brake. For the rear wheel, the "brake bridge" usually was meant to hold a fender and/or reflector and was farther from the tire/rim than on a BMX or other bike type. These design characteristics meant that if you want to change to hand brakes, you're going to need a very long brake.Is built with rear pivot bolt but included front bolt and two shallow front fork half moon washers. Rear pivot bolt is 32mm and front is 45mm.
