Depending on the fork style, the spoke wheel you are looking for may be available from him right now. I have had a wire wheel from him on my Softail, with a 360 Brake and it is cool, and performs well. Give him a call @ (818) 887-9065.

I tested for short miles as mentioned in my post. It was breaking good. And I reported only this. I didn't do or pretend do any technical evaluation. It's not my job and was not my purpose.

the company is insolvent and has no product

they recommend dot 5.1 instead of the advertised dot 5 because of the high heat generated by the brake evaporates the water that doesnt mix with the 5 causing vapor lock then brake failure.

they developed a hollow piston in hopes of dispersing the heat their brake creates.

they have a secondary bleeding proceedure to evacuate air left at the piston seal. when this is actually vapor from water evaporating.

they sent out a letter stating the brake is designed for bikes with a gross weight of 700lbs. when most v-twins weigh 600 without a rider.

letter also states brake is not rated over 70 mph.

sounds to me the original testing was quite limited and with the new limitations of the brake it was sold under false pretenses.

i have front and rear so these issues i state are first hand. just wondering if you still promoting it cause i’m at my wits end with this.

thanks for your time and input,

It's good to know your opinion. But how does a garage builder gets wheels (front & rear) equipped with the 360 brake? I don't do hub machining! I am sure everybody want to know. What about rear left or right side drive? Thanks Cyril. It’s good to know your opinion. But how does a garage builder gets wheels (front & rear) equipped with the 360 brake? I don’t do hub machining!
