Cheers Riccy.

Yes, I saw that but the picture that shows the bearing fitted does not have that bracket in place, and as the bearing should be an interference fit on the shaft
ie not removeable until replacement time, why hasn't the plate been fitted?

The bracket has a little slot cut into it Rog, so it just slots over the end when it's in.

Thanks Riccy, it's been a great learning curve! Nearly done (for the time being...).

Cheers Reason2doubt. Still slightly confused so would be obliged if you would advise who supplied the disc brake conversion?

Here's the full kit:

Seems expensive, I don't remember it being that expensive when I got it a couple years ago...but hey ho.
