You can buy them already done from beedspeed. Think they're an OK price. 80 quid or so.

Anybody using the already converted back plates? Do they have the thread cut in to house the slave?

You can also get a pop in type that goes behind the circlip, if you want it to be reversible. They're a pain to bleed and I found it quite springy against the circlip.

Might still be in the shed if you're interested in trying it?

Scootrs used the type that fit behind the circlip whereas the Spaq / Sterling one has a bolt on cylinder.
