Sold: $15.00
Frame and Wheel is auctioning a pair of Shimano Ultegra BR-6403 dual pivot side pull caliper brakes. The brakes have had one previous owner; they came off an old racing bike and have been in storage for the past few years. The brakes are in good condition and functioning fine; the pivots move smoothly; the quick releases turns off and on; and the pads have about 2 mm left until they hit the replace indicator. Frame and Wheel notes the following: the barrel adjuster on the rear brake is very difficult to unscrew given the accumulation of grime in the threads and will require cleaning and a 5 mm wrench to remove; there is only one washer on the brake mount for the rear brake; there is a scratch on the brake arm of the rear brake; and there is some corrosion on the brake spring and the cable fixing bolt of the rear brake. The brakes are being sold as is and although the brakes were cleaned and inspected, Frame and Wheel cannot guarantee that all imperfections have been spotted. Frame and Wheel's view is that with a thorough cleaning, the brakes will work very well on a restoration bicycle.
