Radical SR3 brake discs?

Does anybody know what road car the brake discs used on a radical SR3 are from?

Need to get a couple of sets and reluctant to pay factory prices!

I got hold of a disk catalogue from my local motor factors - it has all the disk measurments in it.

So if you can identify the disk from the book, you'll get a link to the car they are used on, then have a look at the calipers on the car etc. may be the long route but you will get their.

Come to think of it there must be a radical owners club - they will know!!

Nat,

I didn't think these discs were from a road car, i thought/assumed (possibly wrongly) that they were bespoke items by wilwood or ap? Do they have a seperate bell or are they one piece with the mounting centre?

Swap the hubs for some that take a known cheap disk and tell the driver not to use them too much as they will probably fade anyway. Transits have a good setup, four pot and vented.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Hi ned!

They're one piece surprisingly, but we've just got a price of £97 a pair now which sounds more like it and so we;re going with ones from radical at that price. I'll measure one up anyway when we take it off so we can see what they are!


cheers folks
