> Any tips on centering Universal 68s? Aaron, It's sad in a way - I never encountered another quality brakeset as difficult to center as the Universal 68s. I think that accounted for the lasting appeal of center-pulls. I _finally_ was able to do it when I got one of those tools that grabs the loops of the caliper return spring. (The Park OBW-3, for example, but I originally bought a similar tool made from wire.) Anyway, take a look at this: http://www.parktool.com/tools/OBW_3BIG.shtml
Before we got into the "thou shalt preserve" ethic, I used to file flats on the spring holding piece, so it could be adjusted easily with a thin wrench. Didn't have such tools back then. still don't. Fred's approach is more elegant...
