Mark will post something on here later that might help. It was fitted to his SI (now deceased) which featured a modified standard disc brake with antidive. It isn't hard to do, but a picture will tell a thousand words.

Mark, stop watching daytime TV and post that link. (BTW, how is the broken leg??)

Mark, are you doing these for people? I have a miffed up disc back plate that could be worked for this set up.
What you have done looks nice and neat. I like muchly.

That doesn't sound so good. What was wrong with it?

Bugger! Sorry about that. Hope you're doing all right now. I've done a month in intensive care myslef, the farting competitions in there where more of a silent affair, but worthy never the less :)
So, was the brake a good set-up?

one of the best i have ever used . the caliper and disc was of a p2 so it was designed for a 10" wheel

So the magic question would have to be, how much would you mate charge to do another if I were to come up with the caliper?
