The last I'd heard was that Euro Asia was manufacturing their own drop bolts to work with Record brakes, but that they were expensive. This was in answer to my quest for a rear two years ago. Luckily I was alerted to an e-bay auction which I won only by being the first one to post my max. bid at a tie. Good luck to your search. And I remember looking through the Campy cabinet thinking these are cool, but not willing to ante up the $15 just to have a cool drop bolt around. After all, Campy was gonna have this stuff forever, right?

And my Taylor Path Racer wouldn't fit Campy's with a drop bolt,even with 27" wheels. I had to go way long for the brakes to fit my 700c rim.

Does anyone have a set of Campagnolo drop bolts that they're willing to part with? I would like to find both front and rear, but I think I can manage if I just find the rear one. I am trying to fit a set of Campag. side pulls to a Jack Taylor frame. It's funny, but the Taylor brothers continued building their bikes, all the way into the '90s, with 27" wheels and non recessed brake bolt attachments.--A very quirky thing to do.
