Re: scootrs disc brake.
The wheel is fitted and the shoulder is sticking out a small amount and that is pushing against the fork link leaving a small gap
Between the link and caliper bracket.
Brake pads are not in yet but the caliper and bracket seem to wobble about a lot.
If a nut was fitted wouldn't this stiffen it up

Re: scootrs disc brake.
Yes the axle does have a shoulder but it sits just above the caliper bracket level when sitting in its reccess. Most pics online show it with a nut on this side and its flush with caliper bracket. Just rang beedspeed and they said there is a specific nut with a rebate in it. So you get a nut on each...

Re: scootrs disc brake.
Caliper bracket seems loose.
Pics on line show it fitted with nuts on both sides.
Just looked on beedspeed site and they do locking nuts with a reccess on them.
Just got new standard ones think this is the problem.
Scooter been in bits for 2 years so cannot find the old ones.

scootrs disc brake.
Hi Got a scootrs disk brake for my lambretta and can't remember how it goes back together. :oops: Problem I have is with the spindle when refitted. When it is back together the end that is up against the metal bracket that holds the caliper will not let the nut sit flush with the plate. The spindle ...

Re: Replacing Scootrs Disk
On my chopper the chrome bracket the caliper fits onto is held onto the spindle by a wider part on one end of the spindle. To get the bracket off you have to take the nut off the opposite side of the bracket on the spindle. Then push the spindle back towards the bracket so the spindle is completely ...
