I was wondering just how rare are the GB Coreur 66 brake calipers and what's a good price for a used pair? I was fortunate to get a pair for considerably less, but I've been out bid on the last two sets I've seen on the UK Ebay at over $150 and I never see them on our Ebay. In fact one auction closed out at over $200 for a really grubby looking pair. I'm kind of in need of the rear brake for my latest project, but somehow over a hundred bucks seems a little stiff. and we're not talking NOS. Maybe it's just the supply and demand thing. I did manage to score the appropriate brake levers in near mint condition though.
