BREMBO RADIAL MASTER CYLINDER I am considering fitting a radial master cylinder. Should I do it? Will I notice the difference? Am I right in thinking that the corect size is 19mm bore/20 ratio? Where is the best place to buy it? thanks |
Yes,yes,yes and Nelly at Cornerspeed. |
Don't go for the Brembo, it is way overpriced for what it is (cast, no brake switch etc) http://www.redracingparts.com/en/pro...cyldiscacc.htm CNC machined, brake light switch fitted (a brembo one is £30+ :o ) with flip-up levers to prevent them from snapping And they are TUV approved as well :cool: 217 Euros, Thats about £150 [Edited on 9-6-2004 by DJ Tera] |
ditto Jasper. just bought and fitted one from Nelly. he also has the brake light pressure switches in stock. Can be a little fiddly to fit. Very little clearance I found between the throttle assembly and the clip on part, where the MC will sit. I had to trim a little lug off the switch gear housing to get it to fit properly. No big deal, and not seen when fitted. Also the reservoir needs to be relocated. I have fitted P4 calipers and SBK pads prior to fitting the MC and the total package is now eye-poppingly good...infact I would go as far as saying it would be a liablitly in the wet...and is probably over kill for the road..but it is nice to know the stopping power is there if I need it!! For the track...its the dogs danglies:D |
EVERYONE should do this. Fantastic peices of kit. Bad timing though..ive just flogged flanker a brand new DP superbike upgrade kit with all the gubbins included !!! I would recommend the 19x18 version (as used by the hodgemeister!!!!) - nice feel. Nat |
Don't matter - Mikes listened to reason and sensibly gone for the Discacciati radial cylinders :P Mine should be here by Monday too :sing: [Edited on 9-6-2004 by DJ Tera] |
Thanks for the replies! Went for the DJ tera option but got sucked into the clutch MS aswell. They replied to myorder in minutes so i will keep you informed. Thanks again Mike |
Mike, DJ Which Discacciati did you order, and did you order anything else to help with fitting? |
Just the m/cyl mate (19mm), it comes with a brake switch, and I was told to use the original brakeline and reservoir :) Should be here by Monday - tax free too, gotta love the Italians! :eureka: [Edited on 10-6-2004 by DJ Tera] |
Hi Mr_s Fitting should be straight forward no other bits are required. My handle bars are non standard (www.cyclecat.com ask for Alfred) fully adjustable height and angle but I do see a problem. I will let you know when they arrive, i liked the fact that the brake switch was fitted and that the levers flip up Mike |
