  2. you probably want a 19 x 18 if you are racing short circuits and do any trail braking.

    19 x 20 is more for roads riding/racing where trail braking isn't so much of an issue.
     
    • Thanks Thanks x 1
  3. @SteveO916 can you explain that for idiots like me. Whats the difference? Ta.
     
  4. 19 x 18 gives less "bite" and therefore more feel. 19 x 20 gives a harder lever, more instant braking, so less feel

  5. The numbers relate to bore and pivot points IIRC. Some MC are switchable.

  6. I have one.
    Not sure of the size/ratio. Will need to delve in the garage.

  7. Got to admit I didn't know that either. 19 x 18 is what I'm after then! Changed the advert, thank you.
     
  8. I have a 19x18

  9. If using these with a cable clutch what clutch lever options are there that allow matching levers?
     
  10. you can buy black versions of std levers - not an exact match, but close enuff....
     
  11. Do you know what the closest match is :)

  12. I run a 19x20 and find it gives enough feel. Closer to the bar, more feel, further out, more bite

  13. 19x18's are much better than the 19x20 I've tried both in radial brembo form.

  15. I had a 19x18 on my old bike.
    TBH it was ok , but not a vast improvement on the stock 848/1098 item.
    Not sure what the ratio is on the oem item?
    My road bike has 1098 stock master and P4 34 calipers from a crashed S100RR and it fecking stops! :Jawdrop:
