No the front rotor came with the 21" wheel from Paul Yaffe.

The heartland rotors are polished not chromed...

That's looking really dialed-in! Nice work.

I've been thinking about a rear caliper but would rather stick needles in my eyes before doing another brake bleeding. My front was a bitch. How did it go for you?

looks nice j33ptc
The rear caliper is already on my new order list. Are these black bolts also available in chrom, cause I couldn't find them, or did you use the original ones?

HD100: The bolts for these calipers are not available in chrome, I am getting covers for them.

fatboyscott: The seat is a customised (by Danny Gray) heartland seat, part of the heartland conversion
