Hi All!

Just wanted to see if anyone out there has changed the brake master
cylinder on their front disk Eldo's.

I've heard and read that the original 15mm master cylinder were made to
ideally accomodate twin disks (thus making them not as effective when
only 1 disk is being used). I've been told to go to a smaller master
cylinder (possibly from a T3?)...such as 11mm or 13mm?

Anyone done this...and can I get the new master cylinder fairly easily?

Also, is used a safe way to go?

Thanks for all the help. Hope everyone's doing well out there...been
beautiful driving weather here in San Francisco (and I've been doing
some beautiful riding since my recent tune up and carb switch...to Dell
Ortos from Amal).
