Well, after contacting Brent to make sure he had the floating rotor and pads in stock I placed the order. I know it's more than BikeBandit.com but ordering from them is like putting your cash in a bottle and throwing it into the ocean--it'll get there but you have no idea how long it will take. With Brent, the parts are already on their way and I already have a tracking number.

I also ordered SS braided brake lines. Guess it's time to overhaul the braking system. I've had some speed-bleeders sitting in my garage for quite a while, but I'll finally get to put those in.

I still want the TBS wheel, but if I find one I'll probably just stash it for a while, depending on how good this new setup works. I'll get my wheels back with new Avon Venom tires mounted up before the shipment arrives. I should be able to report on the braking performance this weekend.
