colly Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 i have thought about running a rear disc for long time on the back, but i know for a fact i would keep belting it off walls (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawnmowerman Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 I had a double disc megamo equip pro a while ago, with hope minis it was amazing! I couldnt fault it and i never hit the rotor (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colly Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 all my rear dropout is scraped on my frame atm so i would deffo do a few discs in, but i would really like one. (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Clark Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 I didn't think they made a rear one, so you'd have to buy a new left hand lever and smaller rotor to make it work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsguru Posted February 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 i didnt think they did either but i was on chainreaction's website and they are listed on there (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Drewery Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 My mate used to have a sweet orange zero with hope M4's front and rear and their lock and bite was unbeatable, but he had some problems with them like once he did a 180 off a recycle bin and his rear rotor helicoiled and snapped off! he was miffed to a the least! No other brake can match up to the power but like anything they have cons so most people settle for the sensible solution-a hs33 on the back (or a decent v-brake). I doubt anyone has used the mono trial on the rear yet though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthewholdsworth Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 ive never run rear disc but my mono trial up front has so much bite i reckon it would cope on the rear. my mates used to run rear C2s both of em cracked their disc mount, one zebdi, one echo ES4. and there is always a risk of clipping walls. akrigg used to run em (f/r C2s) on his pace way back in 1999 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
