edit. Oh you already got the CL one. Be extra careful (especially in the rain) with those brakes.
That Torker is cool.
So is the old bike, however.
The brakes on my '77 and '83 Fuji are fine in the rain. Had them inspected and made sure they could stop me on a dime. That's all I'd recommend. On the '83 I opted for new levers. The '77 has beautiful donated levers from one of the gals here on TE. (Thank You!)
The levers now make the bike, LOL!
Point being, have them looked at. Just in case.
