I've just purchased a complete front wheel from a Triumph with a TLS brake that I intend to fit my 1957 A10 The original brake has a torque bar but obviously the TLS uses a lug . Does anyone do a conversion kit ?
I get the feeling I may have to weld something onto the existing fork leg but would rather avoid it if possible.
I haven't even thought how I'm going to get around the different splindles as my fork legs don't have split yokes at the base !!
I was told it will be an easy conversion but I quess that it may be easier on a later model

If the A10 is fitted with Ariel type hubs don't mess around with the forks trying to make the Triumph wheel fit. Just change the fork sliders for late A10 ones. An easy job and will save you a lot of stress.

My thoughts are that as suggested change the sliders, however I would go the whole way and stick A65 front end on complete. As I recall they are so much alike you wont know the difference.
However instead of welding put a bracket around the fork leg and bolt the staedy bar from there.

Do you know if the triumph spindle will fit without modification?
Thanks
