but have been spending money left right n centre on other projects , and more bits for this one ..

Hey Mr Ballard, going the rear disk setup? Is that the one that you bought from a fellow MG member just before the big shutdown? Just make sure that the front has enough bite in it. Otherwise you will get more skidmarks, both on the road and in yer jocks! I found that the rear disk setup was a bit of overkill with the twinpot caliper and I am going to see if they are interchangable front and rear to even things up a bit.

yes mate , from monkeyz. arrived this morning ,," cheers monkeyz ,,, pm sent "
was thinking that after our yack on the phone the other day .
this setup has the 2 pot caliper , so will see .
the disc on the frontend is a 220mm job 2 pot , and as i use majority of front brake all the time , i guess it'll be ok.
got the rear disc as a visual thing more than anything .
and itll allow me to swap the drum set up with the new pads and bearings off the bike to put it on to the mini buel bike .
