We were poor lads then, no hydrolics just pre-stretched cables, twin leading shoe on the front if you were lucky, single leading shoe on the rear end. My BSA Super Rocket had twin leading on the front with an airdam/scoop when it rained it funnelled the water into the hub and made the brake almost non exsistant. All the rear ever did was make the back wheel skid, you would pres down on the pedal, nothing, nothing, nothing, lockup.
The thing that always seemed to happen was when the shoes wore down and the cables stretch the angle of pull on the brake hub lever was way over 90 degrees so did foc all.
