Re: Manny from Team Outermost's Hand Brake Setup
I have the GPtech adapter ($35) on mine with a 900RR front brake lever (free) and 5ft of brake line($90),no problems so far, Nags is right if you bleed it right you shouldn't have to pump it.
I would like to get the Fullthrottle set up but money is a little tight

Damn I read all this sh*t and still theres not a best way to rig up a hb? I guess the answer is trial and error.
Nags you are right, Thats some white boy engineering for that a$$...
Oh and where do you get that gptech stuff at?

I've got to get off my butt and get mine! Jemar from the Freestyle Freakz had one (gp tech) on his 900rr this weekend at our spot and he was locking up the rear tire with it. He's had no problems yet. I'm gonna go the cheap way first! lol

And Then, here is the whole MC. Its actually rigged on there to fit since it is out of an F-2. The wholes did not line up so it got rigged. I dont trust the hose on the spout held by a hose clamp but it worked. I did put some JB Weld around the hose to prevent leaks if any were to ocurr. Never had any! It is a High Pressure hose though & it was hard to fit it in & over the lip of the spout then I hose Clamped it. I actually tried a cheaper line & it did blow off on the middle of a spreader & nailed the bar. Luckly I saved it running behind the bike @ 30 mph. Got to remember that was the first one I ever made. That has never happened again since!!! Im knocking on wood!!! lol.

Now this one here I like & Trust. Its on Ernies Bike. He finally gave up on the BMX Lever & Cable attached to the rear brake pedal. If you were to do this & do the clamp thing. You know the Inner clip & the clamp theory... I dont think you could go wrong. Ernie just has the inner clip to the compression nuts into the line into the lever. Does that make sence???

Re: Manny from Team Outermost's Hand Brake Setup
did anyone ever check whats under this elbow? I'm guessing its a decent sized hole that leads to the piston. What about taking the elbow off and threading the hole to accept a fiting, locktiting it all and then putting the braided hose right to that fitting. It would eliminate most of the jankyness (no offense) of having that lp plastic elbow on there. Any thoughts?
