Need some help.

can anybody confirm/advise on the following:-

are the front and rear brake calipers on the later (91era)three spoked wheel version of the tzr identical or different sizes?
what size is the front brake disc on the three spoked wheel version of the tzr?

I have fitted the later three spoked front wheel to my 2rk, I have what I believe is the correct disc (approx 270mm) and a 91era caliper. (it appears to be of identical dimensions as the early front caliper) unforunately the caliper won't fit as the disc appears to be too large!

I'm so frustrated as apart from the caliper rebuilds I'm almost back on the road!!

the 3 spoke front calliper is different to the rear, and the 6 spoke front.but the 6 spoke front, and 3 spoke rear are the same.does that make any sense?

cheers mate,
yeah it does, I now have 4!! which are the early style in various states of repair.
Anybody got a later three spoked wheel front caliper they would like to exchange for ?coin style beer tokens??

I'll take some beer tokens from your hand if you like

Or get a beer with you some time...

Incidentally... What you doing with your old 6-spoke wheels?

sold the old six spoke wheels on fleabay to some bloke in Norfolk.

basically I just need this caliper sorting and I'm pretty much good to go!

Fair enough. Would've considered nabbing them from you for spares for my bike
