Title: brake master cylinder Post by: klogan45 on November 29, 2006, 09:44:31 PM Hi Guys....
Knock knock who's there? Yeti Yeti who? yeti nother question.. GROAN :) :) Seriously though I need a master cylinder to operate the rear brakes on the 535 trike. Will a mini clutch or brake master cylinder do the job? Will I need to be able to balance the pressure to each of the wheels or will an ordinary tee junction be okay? Do I need a restrictor in the tee etc. Thanks Regards keith Title: Re: brake master cylinder Post by: Manky Monkey on November 29, 2006, 10:59:46 PM Hiya. What's the axle from? Reliant? Why not use the Reliant cylinder? The earlier Girling ones are cast ally & quite pretty. Mine's 5/8" bore & that runs all 3 brakes quite happily without the need for reducers or bias valves.
Merlin Motorsports sell them in a variety of bores, with or without integral reservoirs. http://www.merlinmotorsport.com/index.php?cPath=1658&osCsid=0fc4116c6ce3d1ce3ddebba37b0256e1 A T piece should balance everything up anyway & you can fine tune the 2 brakes with the adjuster screws on the back of the drum backplate.

I think I'll go and see the bloke I got the axle from and see if he can sort a reliant one for me. I had a look at the web site...yes they are quite nice :) But 2nd hand would be better!!!!!! coz they're cheaper. Did you like your bananas and cake? ;D Thanks again K Title: Re: brake master cylinder Post by: Manky Monkey on November 30, 2006, 05:36:52 PM Yuss, fank U!
