The DEXTER RACING Classic disc brake set brings a modern front brake to the classic Vespa Largeframe fork without changing the character of the scooter. A drum-look hub, sophisticated kinematics with integrated anti-dive and a radial brake calliper mount ensure a significantly more stable braking feel on poor roads and at higher speeds. The brake calliper is not included.
Brake disk Ø 158 mm
Radial mount 82 mm
Integrated anti-dive
Original speedometer compatible
Original borchia compatible
Reversible mounting
Note: Brake caliper not included
The matching brake caliper is not part of this set. We recommend the 4-piston radial brake calliper BGM2506TTB (82 mm radial).

Classic look, modern function
The system is designed to retain the look of the classic Largeframe: the hub looks like an original drum, the disc is neatly integrated. At the same time, the revised geometry with integrated anti-dive ensures less front-end dive when braking and smoother handling on poor roads.
Mounting on the original fork
The conversion is designed for the original fork design of these Largeframe models. Modifications to the fork and mudguard are not necessary. The conversion is fully reversible, provided the original parts are retained.
Speedometer and wheel cover
The speedometer cable drive (speedometer by cable) can still be used. The original wheel cover (borchia) also remains compatible to ensure the original look.
Wheel rim note
Designed for classic 10 inch wheels of this series. Tubeless 10 inch rims are also possible, as long as the rim profile and construction match the classic 10 inch format.
Conclusion
The DEXTER RACING Classic Set is the clean solution if you want to ride a modern disc brake on a Rally, Sprint, GT, GTR, TS, GL or Super, but want to retain the original look of the Vespa. Anti-dive, radial mount and 158 mm disc provide a much more controlled braking feel, without visual breaks.
