Anyone know of a good contact?
I need some caliper mounting brackets made (I want to fit larger front discs as the current ones overheat on the track).
I've sent drawings to a couple of people and had no response.
Thanks
Brian

I might know a man that can help.
What form are the drawings in?

Gingerbear thanks for the contact.
Zedhead, I have drawings in Autocad format if you have another contact.
I have a Dymag front wheel and specially made discs to fit the wheel with standard calipers and 280mm discs.
They overheated so I had brackets made to fit Tokico two pot calipers for which I can could buy race pads. I did this and they still overheat.
I now want to upgrade to 310mm discs -these calipers are used on various bikes with discs up to this size.
Alan at Kipkawa made the last set of brackets but has now retired.
