I recently went through this thread beginning to end, and then ran across this video. I remembered there being one or maybe two posts about these brakes, so thought I'd revive and post the video

I installed an entire teams bikes with C Record groupo's. Those brakes were heavy, a pita to setup and barely worked but they looked like jewelry in the box.

Swingbike!

What's funny about that is that I had an MB2 that was painted JD colors from the factory!

Edit: That's a steep downhill!
Why does it show on my PC the right way and rotates when posted here?

I got a wild hair and built a gravel bike. I tried to use as much parts as I had on hand but still had to buy a frame set (Trek Domane ALR on sale for $650), Bontrager Paradigm Comp 25 wheels ($500), disk brakes, tires and shifters. And yes, I know my garage is a mess!

I need to adjust the cockpit a bit with different bars and stem but so far I like it.

I am really enjoying my gravel bike: Moots Routt RSL

Not a really nice day outside and was looking for something that lead me to this article.
Thought it was an interesting read.
Also interesting were the comments. Lots of comments!

Nice find- I remember those skyway mags, I wanted them so bad but never had a chance to get them. I did end up with a nice set of Peregrine 48 spoke rims on my Morales frame. Had a lot of fun with them.

Like the frame and fork, they are retro Graphites. I'm an old school guy, even my new bikes look old.
Now this is truly old school BMXhttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1564282423.jpg

Son racing at Stevens a couple weeks back.
