We have used a 4 pot Kelgate for 3 years now. Kelgate/R3 Racing supplied the bracket to match the caliper to the chassis, currently a 2016 Viper but previously on a 2012 Viper. These are to all intents and purposes the same as the other OTK chassis of this era. We use the yellow medium pad, but Jade who also run the Kelgate use the black hard pad. I made a simple plate to attach the master cylinder to the chassis.

The brake is very powerful so adjusting how the peddle to master cylinder rod/wire is attached to suit the drive is important.

Other than manually adjusting the pad to disc clearance about every 2 to 3 races the brake need virtually no regular bleeding or maintenance unlike the OTK brake !!!!!

A quality piece of kit.
