Brackets are ready again.

[JohnTurbo]

I like mine...with the hispecs the piston area ratio is very close to original and it stops werry werry well.

[Steffen]

I wanted to ask if there is someone who has taken the brackets and not convinced of the better braking performance?

[Steffen]

Still available

[robin]

has anyone had problem of the rear wheels making contact with the calipers when fitted?

[JohnTurbo]

Mine are close...stock rear wheels. What wheels?

[robin]

compomotive wheels it just snags rear calipers so think ill need some wheel spacers

[Glambee]

Did somebody find a smaller caliper than the Brembo one to keep the handbrake?

[Steffen]

I'm working for it. When it will be ready it will be a handbrake which will be "plug and play" in the position of the original brembo with a weight of 600 gramms.

[JohnTurbo]

Nice!

[Steffen]

Like written before.

Oooh!! Nice. Do you have more details and price?

[Steffen]

It's a Hispec-handbrake with some mods from me. I use the mechanical part the outside part and the 2 distances from the Hispec. The inside part (you see this on the last foto) is from me, to come in the correct position and to fit directly without any adaptor. There are also the fittings and distances to use the original cable. There are still 2 problems to solve. 1. The cable doesnt turn back after using the handbrake. position and dimension for the spring is found. 2. The angle of the mechanic part and the cable is no the same. I think everything will be solved until next saturday. Then i can give also the price for the kit, which will be complete plug and play.

Would be interested in the handbrake caliper spot on :-)

Good work. Keeping the OEM Brembo caliper has always been a stupid option when fitting the front caliper on the rear and is just a waste of weight.

[JG]

esp as they weigh a ton, much more than the fronts.

I agree!
That was the motive to find this solution!

[Steffen]

Handbrake will be ready in some weeks. Brackets are available.

[kipper]

OK Steffen, I would be interested in the Handbrake. Keep us posted. Regards Dave
