I wish.... but alas no.

So while the replacement less cut up but ugly used bracket is getting me down the road I will renew my efforts to find as designed under wheel brake caliper and mount assembly I can modify to fit the Superhawk.

Likely it will involve a new disk to fit the needed working radius of the new caliper assembly and building an adapter/spacer for the axle hole of the mount.

Yikes! It looks like the caliper's piston could've got stuck inside one of the "waves" of the rotor and possibly locked up the rear? Glad you're alright man. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with for the fix.

Based on feedback from others, I ordered up an Air Tech AT95 http://www.airtech-streamlining.com/...2-95.htm#price

Lead time is 3-4 weeks so plenty of time to decide what color to paint it;...LOL

Jeez us Mate,

First time I saw what happened to your caliper bracket, to say that I am shocked is an understatement.

Post some pics of the hugger when you get it please!

No, not at all. just laid the front side of the square tube leg on top of a cloth covered 2x4 piece of wood..then formed the back side with the dead blow hammer.
