For a ‘57 Schwinn canti frame

Not sure if you’re still looking for one of these? You’re probably nowhere near this guy. He’s got one for sale on the app OfferUp. $60

I was going to buy it but I went a different route with my build.

Thanks for the lead man!
I had no idea they’re in that price range! I’ll just run a coaster:thumbsup:

Love that the bike shown is my custom 6 speed Typhoon!
 
I'm gonna start to search
This (I believe) was an earlier sale. Still I appreciate any and all leads. Wasn't someone gonna attempt a homemade clamp.

I haven't seen a home made one like that. I made up an adapter to fit different length brakes, but the two plates needed don't look as good as the specially made part.

They are held against the frame with the two bolts, it can be adjusted up or down and they tighten like a clamp. Then the holes for the brake are lined up and a spacer may be needed to go between the plates for the brake bolt, or be bolted to just the one plate if it's thick enough.
