N.Wood Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Not the first one I've seen like that... Unlucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 from the looks of the frame, its 2nd hand......unlucky there mate consider getting some adaption plates made up if i were you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grant_hundley Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Can the wheel move forwards in the dropouts anymore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walker Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Is this yours? Obviously its running a disk at the moment, but its not the first ive seen like that, there was one on OTN that had some "home made" adapters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mixmaker Posted January 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 That's my bike.I used it for 2 month - with rear avid BB7.Now I wonted to test it with magura, but...Also, - other problem here.with chain. - If it install "straight" - its impossible again - if add one link - that wheel -goes out from drop-outs. - one way to resolve it - add half link, or install usual teensioner.Towler, - what do you mean?

walker Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 you should have spotted the proble with the mounts earlier, so u may have to have some adaptors made. It was probably a mistake in the factory, so they probably decided to make all of the faulty ones into double disk bikes.As for the chain, you should be just able to get a brand new KMC on with the axle right at the front of the drop outs, its not easy, but its possible.

max-t Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 God knows how much for one of those bikes and they can't even get the brake mounts right. Pretty ridiculous really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

basher Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 I had a 230 urban like this once.they where made to take 25inch wheels on purpose as monty wanted to be awquard and make you buy there rims. this new kamel was supose to use the conventional 26inch rims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Swindlehurst Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 (edited) how far is your wheel back out from the frame if you shorten ur chain maybe and push whell right in it might be ok sorry about that thought it was a mod send it back or even better dont buy a monty loldanny Edited January 13, 2009 by Danny Swindlehurst Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam-Griffin Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 yeah.. i knew that but the mounts were in posistion too far up the frame even when using a 26, the maggy would of been using the tyre as a surface, Ill try dig out a pic.Im almost %100 that that top ring is circling the hose guide jamie....

walker Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 i would agree, it looks like its the rear gear cable outer mount, and the magura mounts are below (for a 25" rim), but i may be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 You can just about see the lower mount, but it's covered up by the circle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-baby158 Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 You can just about see the lower mount, but it's covered up by the circle.Yeah it is, was thinking that but didnt want to say anything becuase i might of been wrong.

enima Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 maybe you can put V-bake adapters and ride with V-brakes :? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leotrialp Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Enima wons me haha ....you can do a v-brake adapter, and run v-brakes...in my case I use a v-brakes because the magura are expensive, and dont like how did they brake ...good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaRtZ Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Thats pretty poor standard tbf. I thought most factories had quality control but obviously not Well any nice company would replace the frame for you, with one that has mounts in the right place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
