[mark]

Fits front then... ..what work have you done to the casing to take the banjo then Mark.

[mark]

no mods needed m8 it all fits as it should so can be returned to std very easily , only thing im concerned about is there is no room for an auto adjuster so will just have to keep an eye on thickness of shoes

nice!
if you have a cam, -would buy one.
seen a conversion like this in an old 60s motor/scooter-mag before.

so no different to the standard setup then...
good work, definitely a market for these, wouldn't mind one myself. and bonus it fits in the front.

Its a very similar set up to the old mini, from memory its called a slave cylinder but on the minis they where prone to blowing seals..(cheap s**t no doubt) I remember cause I owned and changed a few..

I certainly like this set up and feel sure there would be a market for it ..maybe of some interest to the racers (late braking and all that) or do you guys live off the disc set up..?

The cylinders were cast steel so were prone to rusting due to water being absorbed into the brake fluid which hastened the faiulure of the seals. If synthetic brake fluid is iused that won't be a problem.
