Front Disc Brake
The brake disc and hub is an integrally cast assembly.

The disc brake caliper:
^ bolts to the front disc brake caliper anchor plate, which bolts to the front wheel spindle.
^ is a guide pin slide, dual piston type.

The caliper housing has a fluid inlet at the center of the bore. A square section seal fitted into an annular groove in the caliper bore seals against hydraulic pressure, while rubber boots seal the caliper pistons and caliper bore from contamination.

The pads are:
^ contained within the front disc brake caliper anchor plate.
^ held to the front disc brake caliper anchor plate abutments by brake disc anti-rattle clips.
