Shouldn't the Reliant plate be the other way round? I always thought the teardrop shaped raised section is an oil drip catcher, so should be at the bottom of the hub.  I designed the original mounting plates to fit the calipers at 45 degrees above & behind the hub.

So did I but didn't know it at the time. Now they are hanging on the wall waiting for a suitable project. Trike didn't need them.
