I have listed both model numbers for the disk and caliper: BRK-512 and BRK-480L. You should find both parts on the website. The caliper uses a regular old bike cable.

Heh.. ironically this was an happy accident. As I did not buy these parts for FRC but for a gokart I race at makerfaires (us mentors gotta have something to build in the off season). And I used AM tires for the front, and realized that everything lined up nicely so it saved me the trouble of making an adapter hub.

You can also make your own disks to if you have basic milling abilities, take piece of .09 flat stock and drill the holes you want into it. You do not need any of the fancy cutouts and speed holes/etc of the commercial disks. Just need the stock to be flat.
