I was under an impression that today's frames and parts made by such companies like Shimano are compatible. Thinking that I went out and bought a set of new brakes without asking any questions or telling the store owner what frame I was buying them for. And to my surprise the new brakes seem too short for my frame. Both arms, on front and rear brakes, do not exactly reach down to the rim's braking surface. The pads touch the tires despite being set at the lowest position possible.
Has anyone had a similar problem?
The frame in question is 2010 Trek 1.2 and the brakes are Shimano 105.
It came with Shimano Sora groupset and the arms on those brakes seem to be much longer.
