Taking a “brake”
Tomashop phase 1 complete.
Leleu front wheel custom disc brake anti-lock system, peugeot rcx rear sprocket/disc brake project.
After taking a quick break from building the Tomashop I filmed Melvin working on the moby rockstar project front wheel custom disc brake.
Because of the demand this is now a service that we provide. We can pretty much adapt a disc brake to any bike. If you need that upgrade on your moped just send us your fork, wheel, caliper , rotor and we’ll take it from there. Our tools are not fancy but they get the job done.
Depending on each project, prices start at $300. This includes custom made aluminum rotor mount, caliper bracket and labor.
If you don’t have the parts we can provide them at additional cost.
I think Melvin likes my new right angle drill. I can say good bye to it. Au revoir ma petite perceuse…
Commissioned custom disc brake for Peugeot Leleu front wheel to be installed on a motobecane moped in Chicago.

For Sale: Tomahawk clutch pulley Xtreme kit
$70
Free shipping
Finally a heavy duty kit to replace the Doppler clutch pulley weak stock 6mm shoe posts that bend or break under big power. Soon available at Treats http://www.treatland.tv
Here’s the final version with water jet cut steel triangle brace (installed on the pulley) + machined steel 8mm posts heat treated + 8mm castle nuts + cotter pins.
The thicker base of each post allows the shoes to fit deeper inside the clutch bell for more grabbing surfaces but with enough clearance so the posts don’t rub against the bell. There’s also a special flat section to hold the post with a wrench when tightening the castle nut.
To upgrade your Doppler clutch pulley remove the stock 6mm pins, drill 5/16 holes, tighten the heavy duty 8mm shoe posts with the castle nuts and cotter pins needed for safety. Install the clutch shoes and the triangle brace plate with the stock Doppler circlips.
Et voila, you’re ready to rip!
