very nice michael...

but one question,why the 22mm braking surface?
i'm sure you have said before but i have forgotten,i was under the impression the more surface area the pads can touch the better braking you would have....

when the bike/s are finished can we have a spec and pictures please ?

It's about unsprung weight innit?

surface area and coefficenet of friction are what you get grip from. I reckon they will be slim as you like 6 pots that match to that skinny rotor.

It is the hound's danglers for sure.

yeh, smaller the rotor the less weight, probably sh&t hot calipers biting them tho so will still make an awesome brake set up,

This is beautiful, Michael! Your bike is beginning to remind me of Durbahn's work. Keep it coming!

By the way, couldn't get in touch with Herr Böcker, but as luck would have it, I somehow got direct access to an Italian radiator company and was able to persuade them into selling me a lower rad which is a superb fit. I'll get some pics on this site in a few days, and yes, there are more to be had if anyone's interested.

Yes, the discs are lighter and have not so much rotating weight. I will use an isr 6 piston brake caliper with
22mm pistons a 6 pads.

I hope this is a good combination.
