Campagnolo Delta Brakes

I dont know if anyone remembers these old chestnuts but here is
reminder

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....item=710129680

I saw a set, in better quality than mine, on ebay and they are up t
about 200 bucks now, and thought "ive got some of those sittin
around", so up they went on ebay with 100 bucks "buy now" and within
hours they were gone with the buy now option to some japanese.

I never thought anything that would be sitting in my murky old toolbo
would qualify as bike porn......

should have asked for more!

There's a guy who rode with us one week, who normally rides down Beach
Road of a Sunday. He has a rear Delta brake with a carbon-fibre cover he
made himself. Maybe he should sell the plan.

You should have!
I am doing something similar, I can't believe I have italians bidding on
Campagnolo stuff. It hasn't even got to the last day bid-madness that
usually happens. I watched an auction finish the other day for some campy
beartrap pedals - they sold for US$91! Hope mine get up that high.....!

OK so are these some way of making a simple canti brake more heavy and
clunky?? Or is there some kind of gizmo in that lump of alloy that
actually makes them work differently...
