really simple:
Use TS calipers, take out the alu piece in between, this is for the ventilated discs. Now install a standard, or Tar-ox or whatever 2.0 disc,
and there you are. I run grooved Tarox.
Now, it never ain't that simple.
when you try to fit the caliper to the disc, it will not fit.....
on the back of the caliper is some alu you will have to file or grind away. You will see easily enough.
Then, also you will have to fabricate the solid brake line on the back of the upright, or use one from a 2.0 model.
Also, this caliper fits on 1300/1600 uprights only, not on 2000 uprights!
So its a nicer and better conversion than installing everything from a 2000. It also very decreases unsprung weight.
There....
