I presume you mean that Campy brakes were not available as a Paramount option in 1970. They did of course exist, being introduced in 1968. Never used Campy brakes on a 1970 or earlier Paramount, but I did use a drop bolt to adapt original DuraAce SP's to a 1973 LeJeune designed for Mafac CP's, using tubulars, so I suspect a drop bolt could also adapt a 1970 Paramount to Campy brakes and 700C.

Question: Are drop bolts for Campy SR brakes available today, and if so, can someone tell me where?
