One winter project goal this year was to swap out the single LS front brake on my 67 Atlas with 2 LS Commando unit that I have. As I look at the swap, it seems straightforward- remove the orignal backplate and shoe assembly and replace with 2 LS backplate and shoe assembly (assuming all the parts are there which I believe they are; clean and lube appropriately, etc).
I believe I need a new cable as I don't think you can use the single LS cable with the 2 LS assembly. Does anyone know what cable I need (bars are Atlas US import)? Also, can I use the same hand lever?
Next big question involve "setting up" the 2 LS unit , which I understand is the key to success. What exactly is the process for correctly setting up the unit? I don't have acces to a lot of sepcialized tools or machining capability, so at least initially my set up will be limited to what can be adjusted with basic tools.
The weather is starting to warm up, so I'm anxious to try the 2 LS solution to improved barke performance on the Atlas...
