Tektro R559 long reach brake caliper

You'll probably never need this much reach on a typical track bike but just in case you're riding a MASH Work with big honkin' tires and don't want to use cantis, the R559 is a high quality extra long reach dual-pull caliper with refillable cartridge-type brake pads.

This is also what you'll probably need if you've converted an old road frame designed for using 27" wheels to 700c.
