Dia Compe Versa C5 spring issues
#1
Hiya,
I recently got a hold of two sets of Dia Compe Versa C5 cantilever brakes, and they're part of a small pandemic project I have brewing.

The return/rebound/tension spring on one of them is broken, and I was wondering where I could find a new one. I've Googled around, and can't get a clear answer on what I'm looking for.

Does anyone have advice on how to proceed, or know exactly what I'm looking for?

Thank you for any help!

Cheers!
