A smaller and lighter version (which should be globally available) of the 
Factory behemoths can be found on the back of a trials bike. Try the parts 
catalogues at:
http://www.gasgasuk.com/gas-gas-spare-parts.php
I expect that there is a US equivalent.
These have a small bore, but that doesn't matter; the Factory versions have 
too large a bore; if you remember, the diameter of the calliper cylinder on 
the monowheel had to be made larger to compensate. However, fluid/seal 
compatability will need to be matched with the calipers.
