handbrake

so one bike has the dual caliper
the other has the famous alpha chino junction valve

but i was wondering if i could take a dual spout banjo bolt (like on some front masters) straight onto the rear rear caliper and run one line to the front master and then one from the rear master?

Re: handbrake

I believe that that the fluid will just be pushed from 1 resivoir to the other.

just curious, why would you do that when my adapters are only $20, the banjo is only $10 cheaper.

i was just asking, cus even with your adapter you still lose minor pressure with eith the foot or handbrake when u use one. besides, im still planning on hitting you for one

the problem with welding 2 brackets together is they are made of cast alumunium i believe and when welded together they dont hold that great. now i ould be wrong on this but i remember a thread back in the day about this and the outcome was not pretty.


just invest in quality parts that way there is no doubt because they were made to do what they were designed to do.

Re: handbrake

Before I had my FTI rear master, I bought a 35.00 adapter on ebay. Non threaded o-ring type. It worked great(running the 16x18 brembo) if you bled everything right. I had to put a hose clamp around the bolt and fitting so it wouldn't flex. Then I put another hose clamp about an inch up the brake line for extra support. NEVER had a problem losing pressure. If you need pics, ask. I can get the pics off my boy's bike. I gave him that old setup.
