The central bolt is removed from the brake, shortened and brazed into the frame. Then the calipers are reassembled in the usual manner.

\r?\n> A bike claimed to be a "Professional cycle of the Ferretti
\r?\n> team of 1972 that
\r?\n> included the Petterssen brothers and Gianni Motta", eBay
\r?\n> #120676480890 is
\r?\n> not as represented-it's a fake.
\r?\n> The seller approached Alberto Masi (personal communication)
\r?\n> and asked him to
\r?\n> certify the bike as that of Ghosta Pettersen-but Ghosta
\r?\n> Pettersen's bike was
\r?\n> a 62.5 and Alberto noted that a Ferretti Masi didn't sport
\r?\n> De Rosa decals as
\r?\n> seen on this eBay bike.
\r?\n> Furthermore, the seller presents no proof and no
\r?\n> provenance that this bike
\r?\n> was ever owned by anyone on the Ferretti Masi team
\r?\n> and he never will
\r?\n> produce such evidence because it doesn't exist. Many
\r?\n> Ferretti repros exist
\r?\n> and one is listed in the same size as the eBay seller's
\r?\n> bike listed as a
\r?\n> reproduction in Bob Hovey's Masi Archive.
\r?\n> What we have is just a Masi painted and tarted up as a Masi
\r?\n> Ferretti-*let
\r?\n> the seller prove otherwise.*
