Hi Guys,

I have had a search but cannot find any pictures of either the 300mm or 325mm rear brake upgrade.

has anyone got any pictures of the kits fitted?

thanks

Adam

I've just put on a reyland 325 rear kit, performs great and fills my 17s.
The 325 kits the caliper is raised UP, so it still sits pretty much in the middle/flat. Unlike the 300 kits where it is angled down like the picture above.

Are you trying to make your own kit? Best to just buy the tried and tested kit, they are reasonable.

I was looking at the 325 kit but just cant justify the £450.

I was looking at drawing up some brackets and get them made as i think i could do it for around £350 with new bells, rotors and my own brackets.
