I'm looking for a set of 80's scott-peterson self energizing brakes.

BTW: I have them on the back of my tourer. They make very little
difference to stopping power.
They shouldn't make a whole lot of difference on the rear brake, since it
generally doesn't take that much power to skid a rear wheel. The front
brake is where superior braking power may be required...

SJS Cycles (and Andy's Bikes - www.andysbikes.com, where I got mine from)
have the Suntour XC brakes, where only the rear brake is SE. A front SE
brake might well be a cheap way to get a flying lesson, which as I
understand it is why Suntour's lawyers declined to make them. The original
Pedersen brakes are SE front and rear, but finding them would be a neat
trick these days.
