Schwinn Homegrown Model Identifier › Forums › 1998 Straight 6 rear brake
Does anyone no what other rear brake was used on the Straight 6, not Hayes. All the pictures of rear brake mounts are angled up toward the front of bike. Mine is straight. I heard Hope brakes. Anyone got a picture? Any help is appreciated. Later John
Hope made 22mm-compatible brakes as well. I believe the model was the o2. The ones on my Straight 6 have no identifying label but if you look around a bit they’re out there for sale now and then.

We’ll it looks like it’s not a Hope brake. Everybody keeps showing a 22MM mount, but this one is different. Thanks John but not the one I’m looking for. Mine is the one on bottom.
What you have is likely to have come off a Yeti Lawwill frame – check out this link:

Should be a Hope C2 #1 caliper.
This guy from Australia in this UK vintage bike forum seems to sell what you need:
