I for one would be interested in a bracket if you were making up extra.

Cheers

Neil

I'll test it out and then see what we can get them made for.

And you save 1.2lbs (which is very important on a tuber :run: )...

Anybody interested in one of these? Am currently looking at production costs for a run. I reckon the bracket will come in at around £60, the rest at cost, so; caliper £85ish, hose and fittings £30ish, switch £20ish and connectors £5ish.

The design allows you to mount it above the swing arm to show the caliper off (like neilc, Maz, Beef and OF) or below to hide it (like me). The 'above swing arm' is better suited to the lower caliper in this pic, the hidden to the upper:

Would be good to gauge interest...

As an aside, I really like mine in looks and performance...

Dunno, if I used the guy I used previously, it was about two weeks. I want another myself hence opening the offer to the floor to keep the price down... :D

No great rush for me...

Can you point me in the right direction, the only place I've found the bracket is in the US?

Pash put me down for one please. I think it looks better on show on the tuber but hidden on the xb. Julian on here milled a few up for xb's a couple of years ago, thats who i got mine from. I don't know if he still frequents the forum these days. Rascal look at ebay.de there are some for xb's there and the price isn't much more than what mine cost all in as it's for bracket and caliper together :yup:
