I have a Giordano Viaggio Tandem Road Bike, is this brake set going to be a direct fit?

No, it is not a direct fit. I put this brake on a Girodano Viaggio tandem with some modification by drilling out the fork and rear brake bridge for the recessed nuts. A risky task if you don't have the proper tools. The quick release on these brakes won't open wide enough for the 32mm tires to pass through easily. You can force the tire through, but it's not a good idea. I would opt for a different brake for this bike.

I bought these brakes for my Giordano Viaggio Tandem. The bolt hole on the bike had to be opened up for these to mount. But, once installed, they are so much better than stock brakes that came on the bike. You know ... the ones that you squeeze to stop at an intersection and find yourself 10 feet into the intersection before you actually are able to come to a halt!! Tim is right about the 32mm tires. I replaced my 32's with 28mm Gatorskins! Much better.

Yes it will fit your bike , as far as I know . I think you will be happy with the performance also .

Hi,Thanks for the question. I can't seem to get many specs on your bikes but it looks like it should fit. As long as you have an 1 1/8" steerer this fork will work as a direct replacement for your fork.Thanks

The rear spacing on a single speed is 120mm and on most road bikes it's 135mm. Like Valadez said, you need to measure your rear spacing to verify these will fit. Yes, the paint does rub off where the brake pads meet the rim.

I believe this question refers to a Shimano shifter lever, not a brake lever. Anyway, I think they would fit on most bars and I did not worry about that when I ordered and installed my shifters. I belive most bars have similar diameters.

Hi, I just bought my bike this spring (2013) so I was afraid that my brakes were too new however I ordered the mirror because it didn't look like the STI type. Anyhow when the box came in it listed all the Shimano brakes for which it would fit and mine was in that list. You can find your model and number on the side of the brake handle when you peel back the rubberized housing. Here are the models: Sara #ST-3304, #ST-3309, #ST-3400 Tiagra #ST-4400, #ST-4500; 105 #ST-5510, #ST-5600 Ultegra #ST-6510., #ST-6600, #ST-6603, UltegraSL #ST-6600-G, #ST-6603-G Dura-Ace #ST-7700-C, #ST-7703, #ST-7801, #ST-7803 R500 #ST-R500, R600 #ST-R600, R700 #ST-R700

As long as the brakes are still standard equipment. They should fit all around.

I'm not 100% sure but I think they should. go to S&S; cycle website and check fitment

Depends on the existing deraileur, things like long cage and shifter components being shimano compatible have to be there. Chain length may need to be addressed.

They have a lot of info on the manufacturer's site for what it will fit, it's pretty simple. I connected it to a dual suspension mt bike with disc brakes with no problem

Jozsef, I believe so. This wheel is sold by Niagra and you can contact them directly. Your bike is listed as a 21 speed so it should fit. The bike I bought this for was an old 5 speed mountain bike and I had to adjust the spacing and redish the wheel....pretty simple. Good luck. - Bill

They should work with that tire size but you must check the distance between the centerline of the mounting holes to the centerline of the braking surface on both your bikes front qnd rear wheels. These are short calipers and may not be long enough for your particular application. Tektro makes calipers in several different lengths and can be found on the Harris Cyclery website.

The Giant appears to have V brakes so, yes, they should fit. The current levers may be a bit smaller, but you could keep them for use with the new brakes.

Yes, they will work. But, keep in mind; these rims are v brakes and disc brakes compatible. Make sure you are getting the correct rim size for your bike. I believe are 26" rims.

Bryan, that's a hard question to answer. The brake shoes are 30 mm from the center of the post to the rear and require at least 30mm of clearance so that they don't run into the front fork. For the rear brake, the shoe measures 25 mm from the center post to the front of the shoe (the part facing forward), so you would need at least 25 mm of clearance. However, the amt of clearance for the front brake depends upon the inner width of the front fork, and how many washers you could stand to install to mount the brake arms. Sorry, can't answer this exactly, since I don't know the dimensions of your bike. I can tell you that these are very good brake shoes, at least as good as the best Campagnolo shoes and maybe better. The only sure fire way of checking for fit is to buy a couple and try them out. I would like to mount them on some vintage Campy Super Record, single pivot brake arms on my time trial bike that has a Reynolds Ouzo Pro carbon fork, but they won't fit, and there is nothing I can do.

It will fit but you will need to adjust or potentially change the front derailleur.
