‘Front’ brake bolt length replaces old (useless) rear calliper...easy.
Modify a Shimano BR451 rear brake with special long Jetro bolt available online.
Don’t ruin the forks by drilling.
A good bike shop can dismantle these Shimano callipers and insert the long bolt. Cost me a fiver at my LBS.
I bought this front brake to replace the rear brake on a vintage road bike and it’s great. Easy to fit and far more effective than the side pull brake I had on there before.
