Rick,
   I am still working on the disk brake and hope to bring it to Portland.  Hope for a big turn out of 3 wheelers this year, and I look forward to seeing your tribute bike.  Also, I have info on max speed using Comet clutch conversions on 3 wheelers  -- it's best to call me by phone for a faster report.
Jim L.

Please share your source for the numbers you quoted. In all my research and talking to Bob L. "the Simplex Guru" I have only been able to account for the numbers referenced in my original post.  Also, please keep in mind the one I'm selling is restored.  The one sold by Bill E. on eBay last year was not restored.

Come find me in Portland at "Simplex Hill" and we can swap stories!
