Double disc conversion

(1/4) > >>

Sesman:
Help please. Almost completed the DD conversion, however have encountered a slight problem. I elected to use the asymmetrical set up, but of course I now need a longer caliper arm spring and adjuster screw. I can preload the spring using washers or a short spacer, but the screw will be too short. Iv’e not noticed mention of this in the articles I’ve read. Is a ready made alternative available,or,do I get one made?

Thanks in anticipation.

Sesman:
Scrub that, just reread part 2 of the Blacksquare Article.  :-[

Sesman:
Shim the spring and place the locknut on the inner fork side. Not a pleasant solution, but effective. In the long term I’ll get a mate to run me up a special, longer item.

Trigger:
Just buy a countersunk machine screw. Link >>> http://www.sohc.co.uk/index.php/topic,20419.135.html

It has been more than a week now so, can not remember. Just look on ebay for stainless compression springs that you can give all the measurements  ;)
