ye the t1 is a big ask ..

darkersomeday · « **Reply #11 on:** June 12, 2007, 08:59 PM »

thats an amazing brake there, would it have been early cnc machine or before that?

how does it work?!!

daz bmx it! · « **Reply #12 on:** June 12, 2007, 08:59 PM »

That brake looks like a bloody robot!

harris · « **Reply #13 on:** June 12, 2007, 09:04 PM »

its a strange jobby ,maurice meyer has a few parts left i think
it works from a rod inside the forks and a cam .pulls brakes open from the bottom

darkersomeday · « **Reply #14 on:** June 12, 2007, 09:27 PM »

is that a lug welded onto the left fork leg or just the pic?

does the cable pull the tube and bracket up-wards opening the rollers?

for the time the work on that hutch brake is top notch, that revebge brake i had recently wasnt as good!

harris · « **Reply #15 on:** June 12, 2007, 09:32 PM »

to tell the truth im not 100 % sure how it works completely but maurice pops on rad a bit
or vintage mostly i will ask to clarify.

harris · « **Reply #18 on:** June 12, 2007, 09:39 PM »

the braket isnt in its finished position well i hope it isnt lol

harris · « **Reply #19 on:** June 12, 2007, 09:41 PM »

thats the bracket in the center not down on the leg..

Lazarou · « **Reply #20 on:** June 12, 2007, 09:42 PM »

Standard did a similar thing in the early 90's no doubt Rick Moliterno was inspired by his time on the Hutch team.

darkersomeday · « **Reply #21 on:** June 12, 2007, 09:50 PM »

aaah its a plate that sits between the grooves in the rollers!

the tube pulls the bracket and the bracket/plate up into the rollers, are they cam shaped to spread the caliper arms?

so it would have bosses/mounts on the forks to carry the whole thing? like a more modern u-brake would need?

did hutch actually make that fooking gold plated stuff???!!

harris · « **Reply #22 on:** June 12, 2007, 09:53 PM »

yes hutch had the gold stuff done for woodys rides,but the later stuff was done by someone else so im led to believe.

gt0733 · « **Reply #23 on:** June 12, 2007, 10:27 PM »

keep it simple, i say

that brake is not really a popular item, therefore makes it rare. too easy.

a popular item BITD that i haven't seen recently are Grab On MX3 grips. so if you're trying to build a 1982 Geg Hill GT replica, look out

Profile billet wheels......

....or Peregrine 16's......
