Default Prodrive Alcon brakes

Just got some of these.

Looking for some discs, pads and adapters...

If you have anything at all let me know, they can be absolutely any condition for a project I've got going

Many thanks

Assuming they're just regular two piece rotors Godspeed or Reyland can offer non branded replacements for sub-£300. I've been running the Reyland's on my AP's for the past year and they do the job fine.

Yup, they're the ones. Martin Hadland at Reyland is a good guy. If you want curved/straight grooves he can do them or also ungrooved. It'll be more if you need bells too but assuming you've just got some gacked discs needing replacement then they're definitely ideal. Remember to get a couple of packs of replacement bolts too, you really shouldn't be re-using rotor bolts even if they do come off without shearing (I think half mine sheared which actually made job easier, if a little more knuckle scraping). I've given mine a fair amount of road abuse over the past 12 months (about 12k) and they've been spot on, first with Mintex M1166 pads and now EBC Orangestuff's.

I used Godspeed when I had mine installed a few years ago. Always performed really well and never had any issues with them.

The discs that came with the Alcon kits were a one piece disc , and are no longer available , we offer a 2 piece disc and bell which are a direct replacement , and when ours wear down you only need to replace the outer rotor as you will re-use the bells over and over.

We have our discs and bells on offer at the moment for £425 a pair inc vat

http://www.godspeedbrakes.co.uk/impr...ved-discs.html

We can offer various compound pads depending on use , pads start at £95 a set

Cheers Ian

So far I've done pretty well getting bits together for these

I've sourced discs, pads and a spare set of bells

All I need is brackets if anyone knows of some, even just one side

This is all for a bit of a project I've got going so trying to avoid buying new where possible..For now.

then I'll go ahead and buy new discs and pads

I know of some brackets sat around however the owner won't sell them without selling the callipers. So if anyone knows of a company that can make up some brackets that would be fantastic

I would add a set of braided brake lines to your list. When I had all my P1's front brakes upgraded to the Alcon ones, using the Godspeed 2 piece bell and disc, I had a set of stainless braided lines installed at the same time.

Godspeed recommended for me to get some Blue Stuff pads, as I tend to drive my P1 rather spiritedly. Once they get warmed up they are bloody epic and I ended up boiling my brake fluid before the pads wanted to fade on me!
