The parts in the "spares" are not worth re-using.
The spare brake is a "side pull" and not very good. Dual pivot brakes would be better to be used and much more efficient.
The spare brake levers also not worth re-using. They have a secondary lever, so they can be operated when holding the top of the bar. But I think they gained the nickname of "suicide brakes".
So again, I think you should look again for something else.
Someone could leave outside my front gate but I wouldn’t ride it even if they paid me.
Why not?
