loffa Posted July 22, 2007 Report Share Posted July 22, 2007 (edited) Have you broken the bb7 in yet? How's the performance? Does it have enough power as a rear brake? I used to ride a Simtra with a rear Hope and I loved the disc's performance and everything, but the mushy lever feeling was something I couldn't stand. So a few weeks ago I got myself a new Czar with a Dengura but I'm slightly missing the rear disc.. And as I still have the frame I was thinking of getting a 203mm bb7 to the rear and going back to the Simtra, as I could sell the Czar for the same price I got it.Edit: Just noticed that... where is your rear valve?!

toyota200x Posted July 22, 2007 Report Share Posted July 22, 2007 Awesome setup. I would love it if the sidewall on the rear rim had paint, but that is just for looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
