Scooterotica

morning all,

these brenbo master cylinder seem to be the new next thing, (the green cutdown in this months scootering....) anyone one out there using one and which 'model'?

thanks

There's loads of different ones on the market of that style, the difficulty is in making it fit the Lambretta light switch housing. MB used to do a switch housing to mate up with these motorbike style fitment master cylinders.
They look odd to me unless you've got a hydraulic clutch and use a matching master cylinder for the clutch too.

Got one fitted on my GP and it looks the nuts. like the way you can adjust the lever inwards or outwardly and the master cylinder itself is a work of art.

will try to post an image later if possible.

There are a lot of fakes around for those that like to make life more interesting than it really is.

"Brenbo" sounds like a fake to me, unless it's a tribute brake.

BGM one might be suitable ...

Looks good on a R1 sadly not on a lambretta. looks like the sort of thing someone would fiddle with when the scoot wasleft unattended

Hi, it's my cutdown in scootering. Radial master cylinder is a brembo 16 x 18. It's probably the best bit of kit on the scooter. Loads of feel to the brake, much better than the Nissin type although Nissin radial ones are good they don't look as good as the brembo. I use an mb mount although you have to get it welded a little as the brembo mounting holes are off set slightly. I will try and post a picture up tomorrow.

You can get a radial master clinnder from ped parts, the same as the bgm ones..

Cheers jonny
