I saw this ad on CTC and thought I'd link to it on here in case any tamdem owners were interested.

Thanks for the posting, Mac'. I'll bet it took all of two seconds to sell.

I surely like the one on my tandem, keeps unrestrained 101kph downhill speeds nicely to 68kph when used as a drag brake.

Getting hard to find hubs with threads on the left flanges, though....

Arai is no more, but for those seeking a replacement, Maddox Machine Shop in my area (I have no connection with them) is producing their version of the Arai:
