    Can you hazard a guess as to what diameter this SLS is? The rim is 19"

    Many thanks guys, I will let you know when I can get to it to measure it. It’s currently at the back of the garage with a load of crap in front of it. :confounded:

    Sorry SuperDave but I’m not going to be much help here but I really can’t identify the brake plate in your picture. I think it’s the annular ring on the edge that’s throwing me because I haven’t found a pic of a Triumph SLS hub from your model year like it. Without exception the ones I’ve looked at are quite a plain finish without any real detail as the picture of mine attached.

    I can say though that the SLS brake of the T90 hub of that model year would be 7 inch diameter. But it would also have been in a 18 inch wheel.

    Sorry I can’t help.
    Dave.

    Sports mans bet its 8", 68 Daytona had 8" but the C did not twin leader until 69 in 7" i believe, i have never seen a 7" twin leader with bottom feed.

    Do you mean horizontal cable run like mine?

    Sorry Bazza, yes i'm so used to calling the 68 a bottom feed as in cable and the later 69 on, top feeds.

    My apologies for that. :confused: I’ve obviously got it wrong, It can’t have been a 7in TLS with bottom feed at that time. Sorry!
