The little pressed tin 7" front brake on my bike isn't really up to 21st century road conditions, and even though I try to ride according to the constraints of this brake it can still be a little scary at times.
The drum has been skimmed and the linings fitted to suit, the linings are new softer material and the cable is heavy duty, so not much more to be done there.
I've seen on the C10,11 and 12 forum (the C12 uses the same miniscule front brake, good old BSA cost savings again) that it's possible to adapt an Indian Enfield TLS front brake to fit, and wonder if anyone here has given it a go?
For about 40 quid delivered it's worth a punt I reckon.
