Oh and Ant, not like that. For starters you want a remote reservoir so you can flip it upside down.
There's someone on the US section who gets them cheap, there's thread about it somewhere.

Re: How powerful should a hb be ?
This is just my but i have rode alot of peoples bikes in the last few months
mine is pretty good 16x18 brembo supermoto short lever (636) b model
adzz f4i with brembo 16x18 brembo folding lever andgled up sliglty is awesome locks up with wedding ring finger
ghostie i dont know what he got now cos it was dark but was pretty good but i could not ride his bike for **** cos cut down clutch lever really gangsta short
but i have to say that
Lee's 13mm magura is the best setp up twin caliper adapter with 2 rear calipers from a 636 on his 636 c model it has loads of power and is the most progressive feel definatley the best brake set up i have ever rode with by a long way
so 13 magura all th way for sure

The Brembo IMO is just as strong, the difference is i have 10x more feel with the magura then any brembo. Its also 100x better with the duel caliper set up. I no longer have blisters on my finger from hours of riding and can do rev limiter ss coaster with ease.
I've rode with Brembo's i just dont like them. But saying that i'd get used to it if thats what i had to use.

Also i think a front caliper (4 pot piston) is to much. A stock rear is enough for me, and its easyer to fit on the bike

Im going to get the brackets welded together the same as ludo s 2x standard brackets and calipars. Need to get a line made up aswell then just have to get the hang of using it lol also i have a new 13mm brembo.

I have the long brake lines in stock:YEAH
There is a lot of ways to run rear hand brakes and in time I will stock them all Im having dual brake holders made now for the popular bikes.
But many pros like Jason Britton, Kane,Dan Jackson,Justin Woo and Teach just use a fullthrottle adaptor.

You will only want a duel set up in a few months so why not get it from the off??

Fitted my HB yesterday, just need to figure out how to use it lol.
I did the same as lee got another rear caliper and bracket and welded them together (factory job) and have a new 13mm radial brembo. Just need to bed the old pads in.
