I'm currently converting two 10 speeds with original 27" wheels to use 700c. The bead seat diameter of a 27" wheel is 630mm. A 700c bead seat diameter is 622. A total of 8mm, so the rim will sit 4mm further from the brake. The brake reach is measured from the center of the brake mounting hole to the center of the rim braking surface. Measure your current brake reach and add 4mm to find out what you'll need.
I'm using these because I need a 60 and 62mm brake reach.
