I'm about 99% sure we purchased this kit from Amazon -
https://www.amazon.com/Signswise-Mou...rds=disc+brake Came with 2 disc brakes and 2 caliper kits. Great for a practice bot and competition bot setup.
The hole pattern was close enough to get 3 or 4 bolts aligned to mount a 1/2" hex hub. We used a small pneumatic actuator to pull the caliper's brake cable, worked great. You can see a video of it
here.
