[QUOTE="ParkRNDL, post: 1201238, member: 36"] Progress report: we have brakes. After all my waffling about the dual control lever, I think I like running it with two levers after all. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20211230_152858.jpg"]181791[/ATTACH] I think I bought these brake pads to get my Porkchop BMX order up over $39 so I could get free shipping. I had originally planned on using two identical brake calipers off a Schwinn Collegiate, but it turns out the upper caliper has to be longer. Somehow I couldn't see that by just eyeballing it. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20211230_152920.jpg"]181792[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="20211230_153034.jpg"]181793[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="20211230_153048.jpg"]181794[/ATTACH] Methinks I need to shorten up the cables a little, but I like the way the bike looks with both cables looped around to the rear. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20211230_152936.jpg"]181799[/ATTACH] I like the way the blue trim on the shifter looks with the red frame and white upholstery.
