guuuuuuuuu leeeeeeeee Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 (edited) it will probably flex but stick a 2 bolt booster on and you will be sortedit shouldnt damage the frame i've ran one on all my bikes Edited May 11, 2009 by guuuuuuuuu leeeeeeeee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forteh Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 It probably wouldnt flex as much as it will with a vee (maggies cant apply as much force as vee brakes) but as said, if youre unsure then fit a 2bolt booster and it will probably be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
that NBR dude Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 When I ran a magura on the rear of my Bionic B-4, there was a fair amount of flex. Over time, theres a chance it "could" cause a crack around the seatstay. As has been said, a decent booster on there and it will be fine.
