At the moment i am using a cable operated hydraulic disc brake i have found as others have that this is not ideal. cable stretch, loss of fluid and my main problem the master cylinder comes loose.
What i would like is a small master cylinder something from hope (mountain bike) or from a small trials bike has anyone seen or used any of these, the 1990's Suzuki/Yamaha work but look out of place and don't look good.
thanks

That looks very nice mate, nice work. I bet it has taken a painstaking effort to see where can you house the oil... (I am presuming that has an oil dispenser within?)

Im sure that some people use a cable from the lever, to a small, hydraulic hidden under the horn cast,
I think that the master cylinder is fitted to a bracket welded in this area, if im not mistaken the master cylinder comes from one of those rev and rip things,
Im not a lambretta man so I have never studied this set up in too much detail. But understand that a few of them are used in the merseyside area.
no doubt some one will give you some info soon
