Sounds good. Do you know if there’s any reason I can’t pop it on a crosscheck? Do the chainstays need to be up to the job like with disc brakes?
Howard-
AFAIK there are no special requirements of the frame, you just add the p-clip thing to the NDS chainstay. It came off a completely unspecial alloy frame, so I think any steel frame would be fine. The chain stay has to take a rotational force, but I can't imagine it's bigger than your weight on it, and the actual braking force is through the dropout.

They are found on cheap-ish bikes, so I don't think there a huge amount of torque going through that arm. I don't know much about compatibility I'm afraid.

It's a BR-IM70-R(ear). This is the exploded diagram FWIW. SJS will sell you the missing grease port cover for a whole 99p!
