brake plates are getting rare now, i have the above one and found another one the same tucked away today!!!

i started a brake plate thread awhile ago here

http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php'topic=146961.0

best ones are the tektro ones (textro and best in the same sentence!!!!) as they are alloy and have 2 ridges on the rear which butt up against the inside of the fork legs stopping the brake plate being able to move left to right
