Hi Jim
I'm intrigued to know how a rod brake conversion would affect the handling? And if the late Rubys had similar brake handling problems?
I've kind of wondered about fitting rods to the 29 special I am building and would love to know what design issues there would be?
David Blessley, a founding member of the South Wales Club has a nice Swallow and I remember him doing the (now defunct due to insurance) driving test at our annual rally a few years back. From memory he didn't do that well as he couldn't see easily out of the small windows when reversing and weaving through cones!
Cheers
Howard
