Jaffacakes Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 (edited) He isnt,but im pretty sure its possible, i will quite possibly try it in the near future.It would work but it would be so stiff and un powerful, The piston size in a louise is 9mm (like most disk breaks I think ) and The piston size in a HS33 is 14mm so it would just have no real power and just feel awkward. If you are planning to run it in a hope/HS33 lever It wouldn't work what so ever, The hope uses dot 4 or dot 5.1 and the HS33 mineral oil (or more or less anything...even cooking oil or fruit juice) so that wouldn't really work ether. You can take off the lever blade on it if it's a Louise (not sure if the newer ones do it) and put a HS33 blade in there, that way you get a lever blade that is actually half decent, and a TPA.

So I have to go and collect them from the deppo. . I think I will be able to get them tomorrow, and I will repost some better pics then .Thanks,Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogre Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 (edited) You need to run a disk lever on a disk brake! 'caus the fluid heats up and expands so the lever has a little reservwoir thingy on it so it can expand and not do something evil.... Sweet bike though ogre like...

toyota200x Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 That is a awesome looking Monty. Wow. I love the gold and black. I would stick with those pedals if they are grippy and get the job done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
