It's likely that this topic has been covered here before, but I'm wondering what the definitive parts list is to add/convert a RH caliper to a H2?


Also, is it possible to describe the LH to RH 'conversion'?

I've been looking carefully at calipers and mounting brackets and it would seem (to a Luddite) that the caliper is the easy bit, as the inlet line and bleed screw can be swapped, so is it just the mounting bracket that is the issue?

Is it a reasonably economical process?
I've been checking the prices of the various parts (as I know them) and it doesn't seem to be a particularly cheap exercise.

As much as I understand the limitations of disc brakes from the seventies (I have a Waterbuffalo), I figure two should be better than one...

Any info greatly appreciated.

RH caliper adapter mounts are available. Leon on this board provides kits.
The EX conversion provides all the brake you'll need.
