I still need one of these, if I can't buy one is it possible to get the specs on the one that finally worked for the omega?

As promised I took the whole thing apart again. I located proper stainless M5 bolts (I needed one M5x25mm, 2x M5x30mm, 2x M5 nut, and some washers, plus stuff that comes with the TriRig Omega X). I also drilled a hole lining up with the P4's center bolt hole. Here's a photo album outlining the process:

Remarks:
- I found out that I can actually adjust the brake with the crank in place. It's finicky, but it can be done.
- I taped up the fairing (especially the long slot accommodating the brake cable) with klassy black duct tape (the same tape you use to tape your water bottle closed with after you cut it open and put your flat kit in). This to prevent water and grit ingress.
I found out, a year after the fact, that I somehow shared the wrong link. I edited my post above, and the link a couple of lines above this should be the right one as well.

Once I get this installed, I am going to get one of my engineering students to 3D print a new fairing. This is awesome. I love my p4. There still really isnt another bike that fits short dudes that steep with full sized wheels.

Do you have any more of these plates available for sale?

So I got a CNC copy made out of aluminum
I used the 3D one but it would flex with the two point mounting
With the aluminum there is three point mounting super solid.
It’s a 1/2”thick can go down to 3/8”
Next step the fairing back on

Late to the club but the rear brake adapter that came with my P4 (bought secondhand) snapped. I really love my fit on this bike and don't want to start over.
Does anyone have:
A) an adapter that I would be able to buy?
or
B) an original rear brake that I could install on mine to make it rideable?
Thanks in advance.

He made two versions out of aluminum for me
The second version Is a little thinner and shaped
It will work with Magura and tri rig brake
Pretty sure he has the file for a CNC

Resurrecting this one:
Tried to reach out to Glen, but site appears to be down as well as email. Does anybody have a resource for the plate. I can also work with the STEP file. Trying to save some SolidWorks effort;) and machining cost.
Cheers!

I have a P4 that I just retired last year. All parts are original, brake, cover, everything. What is it specifically you are looking for?
The rear brake adapter wich is discussed in this thread
