James Quigley Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 With the Horizontal drop-outs, is there not a problem with rear disc useage?I cant see that the caliper can move in the mounts to compensate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kristaps Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 I want get down light from my hope brakes....so Adam, how do you think can I use plastic magura hoses on my hope? diameter is same as hope metal hose.. And how mutch you saved?..around 100 grams?Thanks.. KristapAnd why internal hose goes into in place where was air nipple?. ( sorry about my english, hope you understand)..why you are doing that..brakes working better?..and how you get out air from your brakes? Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMack Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 As Mr. Kristaps said, what're the advantages of swapping the bleed/hose connections? How're you bleeding it now? Syringe from caliper to lever? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristaps Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 (edited) Thanks Jon .. I cant say it correctly And Adam..how you done it?..You used something like that ? Edited April 4, 2009 by kristaps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroMatt Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 (edited) Only way to be able to use that black hosing on those brakes? Doubt it but can't see any other reason than that, apart from looks ofc Looks like the fitting off the hope crossover kristaps Edited April 4, 2009 by ZeroMatt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 it means you can't hit the 90 degree connector when riding (something I did many times), it makes the brake harder to break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 How do you bleed it with no bleed nipple though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 same as normal, just undo the bolt where the hose normally goes in, that works just the same as a bleed nipple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristaps Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 it means you can't hit the 90 degree connector when riding (something I did many times), it makes the brake harder to break.That is only reason? ..brakes dont work a little better?

JonMack Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 Same way that it goes into the lever I would imagine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
