Finally, the correct metal arrived, I'd ordered the wrong size for the job of making the U bracket that I'd intended to use at the caliper mount end of the brake torque arm.
I cut n drill later, with a bit of bench sanding and tweaking saw the torque arm coming together as I'd planned.....very satisfying.
The bones of it is M10 threading, into a female M10 rose joint at the swingarm end with a thin-wall 10mm i'd steel tube to give it a better look than bare threading..
The rear mount is shaped 30x50mm 3m box section and bolted through the caliper mount using a longer than stock M8 bolt straight out the other side with a lock nut....should hold it correctly I reckon.
Anyone think differently? I'd welcome any critique.
