Silver Brake Calipers

[Lpoolck]

Wanting some silver brake calipers for my new project which I am completing. Been looking on FleaBay and gumtree but the prices they are selling for are near on what you can get them for new and I am wishing to keep the costs of my build down.

Thanks for any help.

Preferably dual pivot. Not fussed on the make as long as they are decent brakes. Thanks.

700 x 23 with the use of mudguards - yet to get the mudguards. Also looking for them but just prioritising things I need to get it back on the road at the minute.

The drop from fork to rim is 45mm. Therefore if using mudguards what do I need to consider? Thanks.

Cheers @Adrian , gives no information regarding mudguards however. Though I know "long reach" will be too big for my bike. Therefore your post regarding having a deeper drop than normal has left me confused...

It had mudguards on in a previous life so hopefully. It had old shimano exage brakes on - no sure which mudguards.
