Which brand will fit an italian gp150 with an original hub without needing a file or sandpaper or is it normal practice to fettle the frinkin things?

I think it is normal practice to fettle everything you buy for a Lambretta. It is one of the joys of ownership. :?

I've fitted Scootopia and Newfren without issue.

Thanks to both of you for the replies. I've spent a few hours trying to fit one of the brands mentioned above. Very hard to sand a brake shoe properly!

Use a good coarse file or a rasp. Much easier than sandpaper.
