And my final bit of verbosity for the evening, I finished off the handbrake mechanism on Saturday evening - though all the cables work, the pistons do not seem to move. I'm hoping this is because I wound them all the way in when I refurbished the calipers and they need to be pushed out by brake fluid for the auto adjust... I hope!

Custom handbrake adjuster bar, a shameful copy of one I saw on Locost Builders. Needs a lick of paint!


Handbrake in position - I originally looked at mounting this further forwards as I find it hard to get hold of it in its current position, but unfortunately it started interfering with other things and had to go back to it's designed position. Ah well!



Finally my slightly kinky clutch pipe - not so sure about this one, I may need to rethink it a bit. There's plenty of clearance between it and the brake pipes behind it (as shown by the foam padding falling down!) but I just keep thinking there is a neater way...
