NC30 Front brakes

Post by Burbage »

Does anyone have accurate dimensions for the pistons in the front calipers of a 92' Jap spec NC30? Or a piston from a caliper that would yield the dimensions I could borrow. I want to make new pistons!

I'm reluctant to dismantle mine at the moment as I am using the bike regularly and do not want to stop using it just yet.

I've got a caliper you can borrow if you want to split and get the dimensions you want. Where abouts are you?

Or if you tell me exactly the dimensions you want I'll measure it for you.
How hard can it be?

You'll need two.. theres a big one and a smaller one on each side (4 per caliper)

I can send you a used set for keeps for the price of postage (probably around 5 quid).

Let me know if you want them.

Thanks for the offers of parts to buy/borrow. I now have the diameters of the pistons all I need is the lengths, can anyone help with this?

Thanks
