Hi there

Wondering if anyone has any experience of these kits.

http://beedspeed.com/product_info.php?products_id=5755

I know about the grimeca semi hydraulic kit but wany fully hydraulic. Any info about build quality and fitting is much appreciated.

Or if anyone knows of another kit let me know. I know I can change the full front end but can't find one local so postage etc rules it out.

Cheers Bruce

fitted one of the handle bar mounted ones a while back for a lad .not difficult just time consuming a dremel will come in handy .works well the only negative i would say is the lever is a fair distance from the grip so unless you have long fingers your going to be stretching .please note i only fitted the master cylinder so dont know if the rest of the kit is great or not

I borrowed Als workshop to do mine as i bought the handle bar mount and picked rest of bits up off the bay it was a piece of p155 to fit mind you Al did it so it would be easy :D
