The Dexter Racing brake kit is the solution if you want to convert a Vespa Smallframe with original V50/PV fork to disc brakes without replacing the entire fork. Instead of frame work or mudguard adjustments, the complete swingarm is replaced. The result: significantly more braking reserve, a cleanly integrated look and a conversion that can be dismantled again if necessary. The brake calliper is not included - we recommend the bgm PRO brake calliper BGM2506TTB.

CNC swingarm CNC wheel hub Radial 82 mm Anti-dive / anti-tip For 10 inch rims Without brake caliper

Scope of delivery brake kit

Dexter Racing swingarm (CNC made from solid material)
Dexter Racing wheel hub (CNC made from solid material, close to original look)
No brake caliper included

Additionally required (not included)

Brake caliper radial 82 mm - recommendation: bgm PRO BGM2506TTB
Hydraulics: Hand pump or master cylinder to match the setup
Brake hose (ideally steel braided) and suitable connections
Brake fluid (e.g. DOT 4, depending on system specification)

Anti-dive / anti-tip - what's behind it?

The smallframe fork is known to dive under hard braking. Dexter solves this by modifying the damper linkage in the swingarm: the kinematics reduce the pitching tendency, the front wheel is guided more smoothly when braking and deceleration is more controlled.

Important notes on selection

This kit is intended for original V50/PV forks. For PK forks, please select the appropriate Dexter version.
There are different versions depending on the rim type (e.g. closed 4-hole or open 5-hole rims). Check rim type before ordering.
Tubeless depends on your rim, the kit is generally designed for 10 inch rims.

Recommended brake caliper

The kit does not include a brake caliper. For the 82 mm radial mount, we recommend the bgm PRO brake caliper BGM2506TTB. This allows you to create a clearly defined, stable setup without having to improvise when selecting adapters and hole patterns.

Conclusion

With the swingarm kit, Dexter Racing provides a technically clean disc brake option for classic smallframe models with V50/PV forks: plug-and-play without fork or mudguard machining, integrated anti-dive and a look that matches the oldie.

FAQ

No. The conversion is carried out by replacing the swingarm. The fork and mudguard normally remain unchanged.
This kit is designed for original V50/PV forks. There are separate versions for PK forks. Please match fork type and kit variant.
Basically 10 inch rims. There are different variants depending on the rim type (closed 4-hole or open 5-hole). Tubeless is possible, but depends on the rim system used.
Yes, the conversion can be retrofitted to the original drum swingarm. Depending on the country, approval or registration may be required for use on public roads - please check the local regulations in advance.
