ghostrider88 Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 think the xt bore is slightly narrower, but the xt lever is an open system the tr is closed. I know man I was talking about tr rim brake vs tr disc brake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials hoe Posted November 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 (edited) I know man I was talking about tr rim brake vs tr disc brake i asked tarty this very question, the only difference is where the lever pivot bolt is placed. although it looks pretty much the same as the rim version. edit - Hi Chris - The lever pivot on the two levers differs in position slightly, to give the disc lever a little more power with less pad travel. The rim brake lever should still work to an extent with their disc brakes, although it would be down on power.

trials hoe Posted January 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) I was thinking mmmm, gustav front brake, then I realized it´s not what's wrong with the xt-tr setup? works kick ass for me, and i get matching levers which is a must. nom nom nom neon rims and trialtech forks nom nom nom words can't explain how happy i am with the tt forks, mainly as i could ditch the clunky looking +20 adapter. Love it! Nice that you don't go all raw too:) not sure what it is, but i have a hatred for silver forks and stems. the new colour scheme is so much nicer imo. Makes me tempted to keep mine. have a 24 and your mod a bike for more than one occasion haha. Edited January 23, 2013 by trials hoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostrider88 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Nah there´s nothing wrong with it, it would be cool to see one of those brakes around here, they were just too damn brutal which made them interesting lol. If they were 100g lighter and even more importantly had more clean looking lever, I would most likely have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
