Got my new spring for the rear brake [see earlier post, it snapped]
KInd people at http://www.campagnoloservice.co.uk - also known as Downland cycles
£11 including postage - next day delivered - result!!!

Thought I would have to buy new brakes - so saved £30+
Excellent service

I have Veloce Brakes, was happy with them and thought good stopping power - until last week when cleaning the bike the spring decided to snap!! no warning just 'ping' and snapped - tried to buy a new spring and cant find anywhere to buy a replacement spring - now left with having to buy a 'set' of new brakes from Wiggle or other for £30 - poor spares service.
Just glad I wasnt going down a hill at the time - could have been dangerous - dont know whether this is a general fault
