Reading the latest post on fork brace's. Can any one tell me how they work?
Now dont think i have not done the maths on these.and trawled many race paddocks,suppling the Lansdowne Manx kits as opened many doors.
by fitting a brace i assume the forks are free or helped to be free from vertical twist.
I was in the paddock with S. Tonge he held the front wheel between is knee's Manx no brace]and pushed the bars side to side, and yes the forks allowed a twist to incure.
Surely the stanchions where not bending,possibly the wheel spindle?
I guessed the stanchions allowed a twist? if so a clamp between the sliders,with just a screwed insert in the oil seal holder thread is not going to provide a firm hold :?:
I think forget the brace and fit twin disc's....
