I'm been out of the scootering scene for a long long time. I'm thinking about a T5 and putting a "classic style" sip disc brake on front. Anyone have any experience with that?

The 50-50 goes on the fork, don't expect it to be super "grabby" since it's still cable operated...

I installed a Grimeca 5 star brake kit on my T5. I mounted a PX master cylinder up on the bars.
