Reply to "New brakes and rotors"

comp2Member

I saw them in the catalog. I wonder how much lighter they are and if he still offers them. I have trips out west from time to time. I got a couple places I may be able to stop by.

I am not quite ready to be addressing the suspension but I do have things I have been thinking about. I don't mind building new a-arms if need be. I am not so concerned about dropping the weight of the a-arms as they are 50% of the unsprung effect. That's a lot of work for little gain unless I am looking at 1/100 of a second lap times at Daytona speedway.

I am more concerned about the heavy brakes, rotors and uprights. Some of the changes may require new a-arms anyway. What ever it takes to not use spacers to keep the scrub radius to a minimum.

With the Campy wheel I did forget to flip the rotor as Ron did in his photo. That may give the clearance needed in the Campy.
