Extended calliper fixed in position.
Used ex-BMX pegs as brackets. They fix to the aluminium angle body frame with a single M10 bolt done up very tight. This allows a bit of adjustment of position and pivot angle relative to the wheel.
Ground a flat on the top edge to allow the calliper to fit snugly.
