Modern V brakes on a vintage frame

Great work!! I am really surprised that something like this doesn't exist as an after market part.

EDIT: Just found these for $60 a pair.

These one say there for the forks, Any one in Atlanta? Those billets are sweet! I have an old avid V brake that locks down w/out the spring pin Lol

I have also seen a V brake mount that bolts to the regular brake bridge just like a caliper brake would. Can't find it now though.

Those are cool!

I wonder how well they grip, would not want them moving when you jammed on the brakes!
