whats the missing part called

[Ba5h]

Can anyone name the doofer I am missing and where I could get one 
The part i am missing has been replaced with a v brake noodle which doest work very well

[watchmechromejob]

think its a straddle cable but you need a support for the cable too, this set up is generally not used on the front,
except on older mtb.

You are missing a straddle cable and a cable hanger.

Straddle cables on the front are for canti brake, not AD's - Ben's got a fookin ace setup on his Dirtbike known as 'Pitch-faux's'. Ba5h's brakes a front brake rooted through the steerer 

You're missing the adjuster assembly that appears on later versions of the FS990 - for a front brake to work real well ideally where you anchor the cable as well needs to be able to rotate a bit. You could use an Oddy Evo II adpator:

But can't guarantee it'd fit into the recess on your brake. Personally looking at the brake I'd just sponk £12 on a new setup

Looks like it is a front brake set up with a Potts mod bolt. No where to fit a cable and hanger.
Don't think anything is really missing. If it's not working that great I would suggest a new cable, clean and re-grease pivot points, lubricate the new cable. Bin the noodle and just make sure the cable has the metal cover fitted.
Some brake do have a specific part like Odyssey but can't see that fitting on this caliper

[john4130]

the odyssey adjuster wont fit without a bit of filing, thats what i did on mine. or you can just ram a normal adjuster in there.

Hi guys thanks for the feedback it is a front brake runnning pots mod so no where for straddle ect 
I should reallly just but a new one but its a rider and hoped I could rustle up summit to fit. Could it be a rear brake therefore wrong?

[Dannywhac]

Na - most of em nowadays are front or rear - they come with the bits for each. I reckon though it's just a cheapy one that comes with the noodle for front use (earlier FS990's came with a noodle as well). Buy that Oddy adjuster and some new pads, dremel out a bit to fit the adjuster and toe in the pads properly and jobs a good'n.

Cool will give it a shot

If u have access to a drill, Vice and hacksaw u could actually use part of the noodle to make a cable stop.
will try and explain
1 - take the noodle off the brake cable
2 - the diameter piece that was previous located in the arm is the part of the noodel u need to use
3 - remove the tube from the end diameter of noodle
4 - so u end up with just the end part that was located in the arm
5 - using a hacksaw carefull cut the bigger diameter off so u are just left with the smaller diameter,
6 - so now u are left with a diameter piece that will fit in the arm (90 degrees to its previous poistion)
7 -put this diamter in the vice and carefully drill a small hole just slightly bigger than the inner cable diameter all the way thro the diameter
8 - now using a drill bit slightly bigger than the outer cable drill HALFWAY thro the diameter
9- what u have basically made is a cable stop that fits into the arm.
10 - put this piece on the cable and then check to see if the cable runs straight across from one arm the new cable stop u made to the pinch bolt, sometimes u will have to get a thin file and file the slot in the cable stop arm, so it doenst rub on the arm.
11 - lub up the cable as well, so it should all move a lot nicer

if u had access to a lathe or had the correct dameter material u could make form a solid piece and would look neater

sorry for the decription and no pics i made a few bitd and they make brakes feel a lot more positive.
i try and find some pics or make one tommorrow to show u what i mean

happy new year

missing these bits ,middle bit and bit on the right ,  come with a fs 990  or the older type ad 990  , think the front kit comes with the Hombre brakes aswell  ?





mooch round t web some shops are still selling the ad990 for under a tenner , comes with the bits you're missing , fix yer front and a new shiny rear in one go   

[gary4130]

mate all you need is a barrel adjuster from a side pull caliper -only a couple of quid on ebay

saves all the hassle of drilling/filing
do this mods loads +works fine 

[Ba5h]

I have managed to het an adjuster from sibot bmx shop in horley a little different to the one posted by danny so will guve that a  go later and post my progress thanks again for the helps guys
