and once you've sorted out the adjustment on the brake pedal you'll have to weld that together I'm picking

Trippy, Is the pedal mounted to the swing arm.. will that not feel wierd or change the feel of the brakes as the swingarm moves up and down? not that it moves massive amounts on a track but would still move a fair bit.

Taken this afternoon. I still need to make a new clevis for the brake lever and shorten the length of the peg down.

I hope that torque arm is strong enough..............

Not planning on it. With a lack nut on the back it can overcome off by itself, and we want it adjustable.

maybe but with all the drama on brakes at the moment do you think that it'll pass?

I expect it to pass. What is difference between that and the adjustment on the linkage rods, or bias bar?

[nodrog:Me]

you better weld your wheel nuts on as well Drew, and your caliper bolts. and your brake pads.

i spent some time talking to Neville Mickleson a couple of weeks ago and while there are supposed to be two separate systems the pedal in most cases is common. We discussed making that pedal bulletproof so there's NO chance of any sort of failure., there's a small potential there
i'm not trying to pick holes in ya bike for the sake of it, just looking through a different set of eyes.

they have just invented this stuff called nighlock nuts and looktight or some shit, sounds like it could be useful somewhere.
