Yeah it's a stock rear brake relaced to an 18 x 2.50 excel rim. Also good eye on that brake. I didnt realize it was gonna push till we got close to install.

Reverse the brake arm I didn't think of though. That would look cool upside down with a long all thread angled way up there to the top.hmmmmm hell this will never be truly finished might look into that for this coming winter tear down when I actually paint it.

This was my solution when I extended the forward controls. I made a push-me-pull-you with a sprinkler pipe bracket bolted and welded to the frame, and a stainless rigging plate from a boat chandlery forming the pivot. The brake light switch is held by a 20mm conduit clamp to the frame, linked directly to the pivot.

The pushrod is a 10" long  5/8 rod, so beefy enough not to buckle. The forward plates are made from 3/8 aluminium plate and allowed me to use readily available controls from the net.
