Alex.loves.boys Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 (edited) hey im thinkking of going to a vee brake at the moment i love the fact that its so quiet yet works awsomly. i really like the sound of felix's back brake and by the looks of things it work god dam well. but im runnin a four bolt mount frame wich would mean id have to get adpatdors and shit. so is it really worth it.

Janson Posted September 4, 2005 Report Share Posted September 4, 2005 the only problem with v-brake adapters of the same type as the fresh design, is that on some frame/rim/tyre combos, the crossover piece of cable hits the top of the tyre. i had that problem with my own designed adapters (similar to fresh), crescent frame, hot-s tyre and d521 a few years back...

Todge Posted September 4, 2005 Report Share Posted September 4, 2005 I have only tested it on my bike and Wallys, and we havent had any problems with that, though it was fairly close on mine with a 2.5 Maxxis. If this is an issue with this initial pair, it can be easily changed and brake boss moved up. Guess we get tot find out soon :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
