I believe a few people have enquired and be told they are unique to Ariel and can only be sourced via the factory.

Again, I believe the pads are shared with a few cars but the calipers are unique to the Atom.

Like the Alcons on previous Atoms, I believe they are unique to the Atom and can only be sourced via the factory.

Does anyone know if the budget formula car callipers by A.P are likely to be the same ones Ariel uses as seen in this link https://apracing.com/race-car/brake-cal ... and-cp7613
It says they accept discs 267mm-295mm there are lots of others which I believe are called radial mounted but the biggest disc I could find for them was 280mm?
