So, spent today fitting the hydraulic handbrake, plumbed it up with braided lines, bled the system - handbrake is useless ffs.
Any ideas on where I'm going wrong @DavyC ? The lever is real hard to pull - very little travel and will not lock the rears at all, just slows the car down a bit. I'm using a .7 M/C. When I apply the footbrake lightly and try the hydro its definitely better.....
Callipers are nice and free, pads and discs are good.
Should I go for a smaller M/C, like .625?
@Liam Shaw That's a nice set up, tho there's a bit more expence there. I know a few of the MX guys running the seperate caliper set up and they seem to like it. Out of interest, what length is that lever and whats the distance from M/C push rod to lever's pivot? Also, what diameter are the pistons in the Wilwoods? You say thats with a .7" M/C and those look like the 250mm discs.. just curious how different combinations add up.
@Liam Shaw any photos of how the secondary caliper bracket fits on?
