ghostrider88 Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Spacing issues might be the catch with that one, but yeah it looks nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Vandart Posted February 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 What is the spacing on both of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VINTAGE-SALSA-V-BRAKE-BOOSTER-FOR-MOUNTAIN-BIKES-VERY-RARE-ORANGE-TAKE-A-LOOK-/350703627078?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item51a790ab46 They say they'll ship world wide, I'd really try and get that if I were you. They are wide spaced, loads of room for big tyres and are pretty stiff, I loved mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostrider88 Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 (edited) 85-105mm for the silver one, grub screws for pre load are nice too. It´s posible to change dimensions, just have to get in touch with him Edited February 1, 2013 by ghostrider88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.KYDD Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 The Thorn boosters mounting holes are spaced at 82mm centre to centre, each mounting hole is 12mm slotted. It's also wide enough to comfortably accept a 2.5" tyre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC12345678910 Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Just to clarify; 82mm is the smallest spacing?? and 96mm is the largest spacing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostrider88 Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 94mm is what I got I think lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Curve Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Outland use to do a range of them and are no longer available which is a bummer.
