Having bought (but not seen) a Valiant Veeline, after a glass or three of Jammy Red Kooliburra, I plonked Velocette Valiant Veeline into Fleabay.....it came up with many hits, intriguingly a listing for a disc lock. now, I am expecting startling performance (compared to the LE), but to my knowledge, no road going bike of that age (early 60's) ever had a factory fitted disc.
So I have messaged them asking for confirmation that it will fit my bike.........
Watch this (cantankerous) space.

The Lambretta TV125 Series 3 was the first modern production motorcycle with a disc brake. MV Agusta followed with their limited production 600 cc touring motorcycle announced in 1965 which had a pair of cable-actuated Campagnolo front disc brakes. The 1969 Honda CB750 put motorcycle disc brakes into the mass market, using a hydraulically operated single piston sliding caliper with a solid front disc.
