Thebigjam101 Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Hi guys I ride an onza limey 320 and it's a brilliant bike- however there's something that's been bugging me at the back of my mind do I decided to see what you all think. The rear hub is a disc hub, and I run dual 160mm discs, but my issue is that technically my hub with a disc and the frame are not compatible. What I did to make it work was put a3mm wide washer/spacer on the disc side of the hub, and everything works fine. But what I'm worried about is the fact that means the frame is technically bent outward a by 3mm-does this put the frame under tension/stress? I have little issue putting the wheel on, I just have to give the disc side rear triangle a gentle pull and it slides on without issue. But I'm worried I'll be riding and it'll crack. Does 3mm make that much difference? Any help/advice would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 What hub is it? Do you have any pics of the setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Alu can deal with flex pretty well. I ran my hope which is 116 in my 110 ice for ages with no problems. Burkett and harmer also got. 130 hub in a mod frame before. No worries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
