Brake Help,

Don't know where to start really,
I need a Brake master cylinder, with my limited space constraints, I don't have room for a dual circuit master cylinder in the traditional position, No servo either.
My braking consists of Tokico 6 pot callipers and bike discs, an the rear I have Mini Drums using 0.75 single cylinders on each side.
My options are going to be a balance bar and dual cylinders, but, 0.625 cylinders (which are the smallest I can find) might be too big, Personally I think .7 is as big as I want to go with a single cylinder or find a dual circuit master cylinder to suit and make a bell crank system so I can use it,
Suggestions gentlemen please...............................................................

If you can go upwards the mini or metro cylinders are fairly compact not sure of the bore though.





Phoned the local ramblers club today, but the bloke who answered just
went on and on.

If I don't use the baked bean tin M/cyl it might work The metro one, If I run it sideways via a bellcrank It might work, I need to look and see how much room there is behind the pedal box behind the accelerator pedal and to the door post.
As long as I can run pipes to the master cylinder to replace the integral bottle, oriented so it does not trap air it could work,
