Want to buy stepdown disc brake set up

    I'm looking to buy a disc brake set up for my 53 superwasp. Like the pridemore setup or like a scarebird type deal. I saw the thread with the Granada rotors but I didn't see how the caliper is mounted

    If you are hoping to get a Pridemore set, then I think you may be out of luck. When I last talked to him he said he was either getting out of production or just had. Can't remember which.

    When I talked to him in the past he said he had to have the brackets cut in groups ( ten I think ).If we get enough people that want brackets maybee he will run a nother batch.I would like four sets of brackets.Just a thought.

    Is this something that is going to happen or is it just a fishing expedition?

    Richard is here at Doc's and said his supplier does not want to make anymore, so he is done with project for now.

    I hope if he if there are any changes he will let us know.Even if Richard just runs the brackets and instructions I would still be intrested.I saw his kit with hubs in Reno.Thanks dave for talking to Richard.

    I too was hoping to get a pride more or land system but gave up. Out of concern that the few remaining source would disappear I purchased kit from abs brakes online for $630, as complete as previous kits. Made in USA. I have no info on how well they install as not installed yet. But may be worth alook

    Would Richard be willing to let someone else take over the project if he is not interested in continuing with it?

    Is the Labud kit still available? I was under the impression that all the kits were no longer in production?

    I'd reproduce them if Richard would be
    okay with it.

    Get the kit from Kanter in NJ and just bolt it on, comes complete. Hope they still are selling them. 1-800-526-1096 Hudson people complain about price and that is why the makers stop selling the parts. Walt.
