Dia Compe Royal Gran Compe Brakeset original matte pewter/bronze - top of the line
Gonna regret letting these go soon as I end up with a frame perfect for the color. But someone already has one - may the new owner enjoy.
Very cool color I've only seen once before is matte bronze/pewter/taupe-ish best I can describe it - see pics.
All parts intact and original except possibly a mounting washer or two (stock stuff I may have around if you want me to look)
Hoods are pliable and in good shape with some scuffing.
Not show quality - some aging and very minor surface rust that polishes up well (see before and after pic of pivot nut) but no road rash at all.
Tight and smooth with strong springs in calipers
Pads, holders, guides original, pads a bit hardened but not petrified - common for these.
$60 + actual shipping. Happy to provide shipping quote.
I also have a black and a white set I'm considering parting with. Stay tuned or inquire.
Please ask for other photos or info you need.

Thank you, Sir.
I will be out of town and won’t be back until Aug 1st. Our mail room throws away things if we don’t get it for some time. If you don’t mind, can you send it after Aug 1st?
Let me know. Thanks!

Sure, no problem - have been in similar situations myself. Just boxed them up. Will send you the Invoice and if you like, you can wait till 8/1 to pay or pay when you get the invoice and I won't send the brakeset till that date.
