Well we made it to the Isle of Man for the TT

Final setup. All works well

Well the brakes have been tested and work well. The handbrake and over run brake remains unchanged. I had to make one change. Mini handbrake cable has springs on the ends. I found out these are to keep the handbrake leaver off and the cable tight. Without this the drums get hot and cause the brakes ...

Hi all, playing with the Portafold on the back of my Trike I found it’s a nightmare to reverse mainly due to the very short A frame. Has anyone ever found the need to lengthen there A frame. It would also lower the nose weight .

Yes, that’s the plan. I’ve cut the cable and have drilled a 4mm hole through an m8 bolt which will act as a clevis on the original compensator.
Thanks. Probably wouldn’t have thought about it had you not have pointed it out.

This is the no spill hydraulic coupling. Very easy to connect and disconnect. My Trike weighs 750kg. Nearly twice that of a Reliant robin. This would work very well with smaller cars as well

Just seen this, nice job, just one note the handbrake cable really should turn 90deg at the pivot point of the trailing arm (Mini's used a pivoting guide on the trailing arm) otherwise the hand brake cables could become lose/tight with the rise and fall of the suspension. You could have the scenari...

Hi all, I have an original sink unit for sale. It’s in reasonable condition but does have a bit of gell coat cracking in the bottom of the sink and a hole which I’m not sure if it should be there or not.
