WTD:Tandem drum brake for Hope tandem hub

[dyna-ti]

I've just picked up another early Hope hub for my collection. This being the tandem model 145mm spacing.
It has a screw for a drum or drag brake and I'd like to fit one for displaying it.


Anyone got one, or can point me in the direction of something period.

I have an Arai drag brake available at home...
Like this, but I can get pics of the real thing at the weekend.
£90 UK Posted looks about right.




Looks like you'll need some spacers making up for the axle to hold the shoe plate.

Alternatively there is the £50 cheapo Karasawa one still available.
Or the beautiful machined Maddox brake at $350USD.

All the best,

Cheers for the reply, and as lovely as that is I'm afraid its seriously outside my budget Sorry.

I'm looking for something worn, used etc broken even I can fettle fix and polish as its just for display.
Something at 30 quid

I'll join one of the tandem forums. I think there might be more of the older worn stuff there than here.

I think its from about '94, so I'm looking for what would have been in use at that time but with other hubs. Kind of what would people have retrofitted onto their bike :?

I love this place for the wee projects I end up doing
