Looking to replace the rear shoes on my Vixen S2 - please can someone confirm whether these are Triumph TR6?

Also appears that the manual adjusters have seized so may enquire from Rimmer Bros/TR Shop if new back plates are available. Have soaked the adjusters with Plusgas but no luck releasing them at present. Anyone got any experience of freeing these off?

The rear brake shoes are TR6.

If you get nowhere with the penetrating oil try gentle heat on the adjuster body (hair dry, hot airgun)it worked for me.

Thanks for your help Dewi.

Have ordered new shoes and manual adjusters (£9.32+VAT each) from TR shop.
