any guys from england here?

I have a weird request.... I need to order a bunch of vertical blind replacement slats for my house but.... All the decent priced places are not willing to ship to Canada or the US, and yet have free shipping within the United Kingdom. Anyone out there feel like adding some points to their karma ban...

Re: frankenstein rear end knock-off

Hiya Hans,

Nope not a bolt on...this would require either modifications to an existing frame or in my case I will build a frame to work with this. That part will probably be a 2014 thing though

Re: frankenstein rear end knock-off

Got the cut files for the steel bracket back from a fellow member here. Thanks Wendell
Hopefully they will be cut this week. Also got the caliper in and will be making up the mounting bracket this coming week.

Re: frankenstein rear end knock-off

Caliper cost 115.00 new with pads...the other I was going to use would of been 35.00 plus 27.00 for pads and been flat black. So I went with this one...other would just need a different mount made up. Good eye on the step down...I didn't even catch it. Its merely cosmetic though, the important part ...

Re: frankenstein rear end knock-off

Probably best to leave that dimension off till we figure out a way to get it...nothing worse than pissed off bikers hahaha.

Little change of plans and decided to go with this caliper. Will end up being cleaner looking.

Re: frankenstein rear end knock-off

Drawing looks amazing. That should help a few guys out there.

here is a pic of it perhaps 95% completed. Just the frame to rear end brackets to make and caliper mount.
