megamomac Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 basically, im after a rear disc hub that will fit a mod bike.... i dont personally know of any i was hoping u guys could give me some help as to if one actually exists. cost is irrelevant within reason it has to be disc compatible as this i s my only braking option cheers alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Cassette hub: Profile Screw on hub: Megamo BikeGas (needs a 2001 Louise caliper to clear the spokes) Don't expect much change from £200 for either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 The only one I really knew of before was the Bikegas disc hub by Megamo, but since Megamo went tits up I think you're largely screwed. Monty presumably do one, 'cos Cesar Canas runs rear disc on his mod, and you can also get Brisa B20D's, so I'm guessing too that Brisa might do one :o Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caleb Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 I have a bikegas hub/wheelbuild and can run a 165 hope rotor just fine, dont know / tried any bigger rotor sizes however. For the profile cassette hub i think there very rare and hard to get hold of however i believe wiggle still stock them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the DMR Revolver disc attachment attach to the micro-drive (14t> side) freewheel threads or the standard threads (14t<)? If it's the micro-drive, most mod hubs have micro and standard, so it should be diamond... Well, as much as a screw-on disc mount can be :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScotchDave Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Mark I think they have a non screw on disc hub as well as the flip flop one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Yeah yeah yeah, but the point I'm getting at is that you could buy the screw-on disc mount for a Revolver, then run it on any standard mod hub. However, if it screws onto the standard sized freewheel thread (same thread size as, say, front freewheel cranks) then you'd have to find a different sprocket for the rear. However, if they screw onto the micro-drive side, you could run it fine with a 12t fixed rear sprocket with the disc mount on the micro-drive side.

Mark W Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Just checked DMRBikes.com: - Run a conventional freewheel (16t plus) with rim brakes or a disc or flip the hub over & run a compact 14t freewheel. Pick the option that suits you or adapt the wheel as your needs change. (See Upgrade section for freewheels) So from that, I'm guessing that it fits on the 'compact' freewheel side, meaning that you're sorted :o All you'd need would just be the disc mount and the locknut.

ScotchDave Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Cool, sorry I forgot mods have gay spacing. :"> :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Yeah, 110mm (unless it's a stupid Monty, in which case we're looking at 106mm) compared to your fat-ass 135mm spacing. Anyhoo, apparently that disc mount could potentially work loose after repeated backhopping, but aralditing the discmount in place, then thread-locking/aralditing the lockring on should work :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megamomac Posted April 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 i already have the bikegas hub, but am looking to get rid of the louise single piston set up. Also the drive side cartidge bearing is no longer existant as it parted company with the hub some time ago !! i was thinking the same thing with the revolver screw on mount. any more ideas feel free to pos them up !! chers for the replys chaps. alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawnmowerman Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 (edited) speak to edd potts aka dave85, he bought a set of megamo equip wheels off my mate a few months ago :) EDIT: you can run a mini on the equip aswell, I had one on mine and it had miles of clearence :o Edited April 13, 2005 by trialsboy560 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 i was thinking the same thing with the revolver screw on mount. any more ideas feel free to pos them up !! Very bad idea for trials - the mounts unscrew themselves, even with the lockring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manuel Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Talk to dave marshall.... He has a loverly custom built Ti mod hub - you could ask him how to get one machined - pretty sure its a disc one as he had a double disc'd revel . . . . .

Mark W Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Edd also converted a Hope hub with 135mm spacing to 110mm spacing, so that might be useful, if you bought a Hope with disc mount, then had it modded. 'd. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megamomac Posted April 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 (edited) actually. scrap that idea... ( my ideas not yours lol )if it means i can get riding i dont mind getting another bearing for the bikegas hub. does anyone know what siz it may be, as the non drive side is smaller in dia. ? alos does anyone know anywhere that i could easily get hold of cartrige bearings? cheers guys alex Edited April 13, 2005 by megamomac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 If you measure the inside of your hub, any skateboard retailler should have some bearings you can use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave85 Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 driveside is a 6902 NDS is a 6000 The Hope bulb uses 6902 bearings, but theyre gonna be expensive compared to a local supplier. Try yellow pages :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
