That’s why I keep the front wheel off the deck… eliminates the drum brake dangers !Seriously and FWIW worth, the Egli proves how drums are indeed more a ‘black art’ than an engineering science.The Godet 4ls is all magnesium, so the wheel assembly is surprisingly light.And performance wise it is in joint first place with a new MV race drum replica I once had.The feel, predictability and power of it really are WAY more than one should expect from a drum.And interestingly, I rode a modern Manx replace on track a little while ago, (a top spec bike built by a top respected builder) which had an IDENTICAL looking 4LS brake… that was frankly horrible. I was staggered at how different it was to the Godet made version.[ATTACH=full]119112[/ATTACH]
