RE: Brake conversion Carbon to steel - need to source calipers and rotors Posted by: John Parsons Richard, with a new set of 280mm steel rotors in hand, if you can provide dimensions, I'll be able to work out if Wilwood stuff might work. The biggest problem I see with Wilwo... |

RE: Brake conversion Carbon to steel - need to source calipers and rotors It looks like the 21mm thick rotor is the standard thickness regardless of a 280 or 300 mm diameter for the SR8 and SR3 so I’d not be worried dropping down to their width too terribly much. If you can... |

RE: Brake conversion Carbon to steel - need to source calipers and rotors The pistons are the same diameters but they are an insulated item - have a secondary piece in each piston which I'm guessing is an insulator. Being that I've not actually seen a steel setup caliper I... |

RE: Brake conversion Carbon to steel - need to source calipers and rotors Finally talked to someone in the technical department at Radical this morning. Changing things out is a lot easier than I thought it was going to be. I'll have to make new bobbins to change the offse... |

RE: Brake conversion Carbon to steel - need to source calipers and rotors I found one Wilwood rotor that uses a 10 on 173mm - and of course I can't find it now. The problem with the Wilwood is that it's only .81" (21mm) wide while we're using 1" (25.4mm). I measured the ca... |

RE: Brake conversion Carbon to steel - need to source calipers and rotors If I understand correctly the 300mm rotors fit in the 15” rims. I am basing this assumption from Radical offering a 300 mm upgrade kit for both front and rear. Same rotors & hats (BD0068), and br... |

RE: Brake conversion Carbon to steel - need to source calipers and rotors Does anyone happen to have a 300mm and/or 280mm rotor sitting around that I can get some measurements from? I'd like to know width and the inner diameter of both the braking surface and the mounting r... |
