Yep, been there, looked at that, far too big. I wanna sleep in it when pissed, not have a party. Still 1500 quid built last time I looked. If I could build a casket on wheels cheaply I'd have done it years ago. But I ain't about to pay 800 quid plus shipping for a new one!
Yes, I'm a true Yorkshireman, money is for counting and drooling over, not spending.

One small point re the 3 hole flanges, wouldn't it be easier to drill the flange to match the adapter plate?

Check the distance between the mounting holes on the carrier, 90mm is what your after.

A hydraulic bench press, (like a glorified bottle jack in an upright frame), seems to be the favourite method. The Reliant hubs sit on a tapered shaft & can take up to 30 tons of pressure to shift. Any decent repair garage should have a press. Usually they'll do it while you wait for a couple of quid beer money. Be aware though that they'll go with a bang when they finally release from the shaft -frightened the poo out of me the first time.

Hya Guy n dolls. My first post on here and its not gonna be my last. Read the whole post and what a wealth of information. My missus is building a trike in our garage and I thought some shiny stuff was in order so I made these Reliant Disc brake conversion When finished it will look summat like this Reliant Disc brake conversion Looks good dont it?? Anyway back to the point of my post on this particular part of the forum. I have access to a CNC plasma cutter at work and I am going to slightly alter the design of the caliper mounting brackets drawn a few pages back and get some cut from 6mm stainless steel. Anyone want any?
