As title says,looking for TLS front hub or complete wheel or 190mm hub or wheel. Not adverse to some work. Anything considered.

Hi R66,
From the photo on your avatar it looks like your SR has the full width iron hubs ?
if so then a Triumph 8in. TLS brake can be fitted, you will need to modify the plate anchor , building up the brake plate OR the fork leg
