Well I allways thought that Balilla was an island in the South Pacific, that someday I would like to retire to, But, maybe thats a different Balilla, BUT I do in my vast parts inventory have several Balilla brake caliphers, the side pull ones have Balilla in a script, they seem well made, very like the Universal ones, I also have, the center pull ones, I have with both the script and block type letter Balilla, I also have brake levers that have Balilla on the side of the hoods, They show up on Ebay now and then, I though they are a change from the Universal ones, that everyone has. I tried a Google search on Balilla seems like a motor cycle co, of some sort, look like 50s 60s vintage style brakes to me. I STILL need a Dunlop 27 1 1/4" 32 hole rim marked special lighweight, even a complete wheel, Cheers John Crump OldgettinolderBrit, Parker Co USA <BR><BR><BR>**************************************<BR> AOL now offers free email to everyone.
