R69s Disk Brake Upgrade

Post by germancarguy »

I have been thinking about upgrading the front to disk brakes on my R69s. I will keep all the original parts and store them away. Has anyone done this and what hub, rotors, calipers and master did you use. I will lace a matching 18 inch alloy rim to the hub.

Hi I have done the conversion . My 1961 R69S was in Volume 43 , Number 3 / August 2019 Club magazine , Page 19 .I have supplied all the information of the conversion in the Magazine . As the story states , I live in Sydney , Australia but am happy to supply furter photos . I avoided huge calipers on the bike as I tried to keep it looking " period " . I will try and attach a photo of the bike as it appeared in the Magazine if you don't have a copy .
