Re: five0 disk brake kit

it comes with the rotor,hub adapter,caliper and pads, brake lever, cable, and +1 legs

there is another one though that includes all of the above plus the derlin no slop bushings
Sano makes this kit it is $ 309
but I already had the bushings so I opted for the five0 kit

Re: five0 disk brake kit

i flip a lot of endos, does it look like the master cylinder can take some abuse or should i get a cable operated one? also i have a fast 50's aluminum throttle with lever attached, would it work with teh kit?

Re: five0 disk brake kit

well I can attest to the master cylinder taking some abuse flipped a few myself. and yeah the kit works great, lever is nice and fits hand well, the only thing is make sure that you break in the pads. I was an idiot and romped on the brakes as soon as I put the kit on so I had to pull the pads out and sand off the glazing
other than that good ****

Re: five0 disk brake kit

the link for the kit is in the original post, this is the cheapest that I could find. Although many times you dont get the best price from the manufacturer five0 is the cheapest

I use to flip endos all the time till I started hitting them 3rd gear wide open. Then instead of getting hurt every time you do an endo you can get really messed up every now and then

Re: five0 disk brake kit

the kit is 300 not 200 and does those different forks take some slop out of your frontend like do the forks not let the wheel flex and be bent crooked you know how you can bend the wheel so its not straight and then bend it back what do you do to fix that forks or bushings aftermarket ones of course anyone know

Re: five0 disk brake kit

no the forks themselves do not take the slop out but they are much stronger than the stock legs and the flex is a fifth as bad when you smash the brakes. what takes the slop out of the forks is the derlin no slop bushings or copper bushings.the best place to find these is www.50ccracing.com the stock plastic bushings suck. this kit makes your forks feel five times better. I am very happy with the kit and think it is well worth the $300

Re: five0 disk brake kit

do you understand what im talkin about though where the wheel will look bent to the left or right and you can just bend it back is that bushings cause it looks to me like they are flexing the fork down at the bottom where it bolts to the wheel i think they flex i know the bushings will do something but who knows where is the cheapest place you have seen the bushings
