[QUOTE="Robert Watson, post: 120031, member: 38"] I took the one off /34 whose fibre disk was seriously disintegrating and open the little ears, made a new disk, copied the body from solid and put the original repaired one back together without breaking the tangs and back on /34 where it still is today. The copies went on a couple of local bikes. This is one of the copies, the fibre disk is held with modern chemicals! EDIT Of course I meant the crimped over part that holds the fibre, it is continuous and not little tangs. I was able to ease it open enough to replace the fibre and then ease it back down again without damage. [/QUOTE]

The Series 'A' Rapide was known as the '********' Nightmare?
