Am looking forward to getting mine now :bigsm:
Only two things that worried me a bit were the 'showroom use' disclaimer and the possibility of availability of replacement shoes long term....how bad would it be if you got a great brake once and couldn't get new shoes again...

We RACED one for six ours on a race here in Spain... Not a single problem. The scoot did 325kms without missing a beat. The brake was outstanding.

Yes, fitted one to Pikey's 'Captain America' chop a few weeks back, they are very straightforward to fit...Pikey loves it and says it works really well.

Not wanting to put a downer on this because I fancy one myself but is the Lambretta rear hub strong enough to cope with the extra breaking force?

I don' think there's any more force. The idea is to align the shoes correctly so the force you do apply goes towards braking efficiently.
