[s-cars] G60 brakes

[Keith Maddock]

Rich,

I should have worded my statement a little bit better.

I said:
"G60's have two pistons with the same effective size as an about 60mm piston."

I should have said:
"G60's have two pistons that together have the same effective size as one  approx.  60mm piston."

Looking at the data from Jimmy's site, it should be more accurate to say that the two pistons together (45mm & 36mm) are the same effective size as a single 57.6mm piston.
Perhaps they should have called it the G58 instead of the G60 !

Regardless, to my original point, this is still larger than Big reds, with 44mm and 36mm pistons, which together  are the same effective size as a single 56.85mm piston.

Thanks for pointing this out.

Cheers,
Keith

Keith Maddock stated on this list that the G60 had 60mm pistons. I stumbled
over this information on
http://www.urs4.com/technical/brakes/UrS4_brakes.html which indicates this
might be incorrect.

I am not in the least interested in being picky. Keith has helped me
enormously in the past. But incase the data is important to someone, I
suggest atleast that they double check the data.
