Sorry about the dust,...it's been sitting awhile.

Be aware that you will have to provide an attachment for the brake module's torque arm or the brake won't work.
Here's a bike with a Nexus 8 hub equipped with a roller brake. The (home-made) torque-link connector is visible. The thing that looks like a disc brake is a heat radiator for the roller brake.
