NC30 Brembo rear caliper conversion
As we all know, new NC30 rear calipers have been unavailable for years and good used ones are becoming increasingly hard to find so this is probably overdue.
Here`s the prototype of a rear caliper mounting bracket which will fit the very common and reasonably priced Brembo 20.5161.43 or 20.6950.51 calipers (one or other of which is OE fitment on most big Ducatis and Aprilias) onto the rear of the NC30 using the stock torque arm and fittings.
I will be happy to get some more of these made if there is any demand - price for the mounting kit will depend on batch size so if anyone is seriously interested put your name down here and we`ll see if it`s worth taking any further.
Thanks as ever to my Fenland friend Dave C. for translating my random ideas and sketches into viable metal...

Re: NC30 Brembo rear caliper conversion
Here`s a couple more pics of the compete arrangement - not great looking as it`s just a test fitting with used bits that I have lying around but you`ll get the idea...

Re: NC30 Brembo rear caliper conversion
I've got some restarts drawn to take a brembo spaced rear master cylinder, haven't got them made yet.
Would you run these brembo rear calliper with standard MC?

Re: NC30 Brembo rear caliper conversion
Rick,
Will this bracket also work with an NC30 equipped with the RC30 anti-squat rear break linkage? I assume yes?

If i can wrench on cars, bikes should not be a problem, right?...

Re: NC30 Brembo rear caliper conversion
I'm going to assume yes as well, since you don't change out the caliper mounting plate when fitting the RC30 bits.jpete41996 wrote:Rick,
