2 Questions

[DanteICE 72]

Question 1:

 

How do I find out the size or measure rose joints?

 

Question 2:

 

Is it legal to have the rear brakes hydraulic only, as in no cable handbrake? Obviously using hydraulic handbrake.

 

Know you lot, this shouldn't take long to get an answer.

question 2: Im pretty sure it used to have to be cable, or at least independant of the main hydraulic system, so if the brakes fail you have a mechanical backup. Mind you Im sure Ive seen build where people use an extra caliper on the rear discs, usually a front one, so not sure how they go about it

1. micrometer or vernier caliper

 

2, nope, has to be a mechanical method, aka standard cables.

In most cases the thread diameter and hole diameter will be the same. ie an M6 rose joint will have a Ø6mm hole and either male or female M6 thread. In special cases, like GrpA wishbones, the hole diameter and thread diameter will be different.
