Nothing new about the front brake. Its the old centre pull we were using nearly fifty years ago.
By the way Sean, one thing differs FROM another, not TO another, so he had a different set up FROM all the others.




[quote="seanieh.NearlyNewCondor©"]Check out the front brakes on his TT bike.

He had different set up to all the others that appeared to be the same regardless of the rider.
