adamtrials Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 (edited) If you have flat plate dropouts you can get an A2Z disk mount that fits on with no welding or anything.They are pretty good. Edited June 7, 2006 by adamtrials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 (edited) Made many adaptors for non-disc frames but all of them were for mods which kind of made the setup much more rigid as the adaptor was fairly short. All I can say is that it works very well but it's got to be done properly and from the right materials. If you're after a lightweight bike, ditch the idea. Going rear disc added over 600g to my bike (partly due to the adaptor) that's why I decided to change to a frame with a disc mount.Edit: IMHO the A2Z adaptor won't last. The forces in trials are too great for a small thing like that to work properly. After all when you're braking in a normal bike, an adaptor like that is "pushed" into the frame, whereas in trials it is pulled out. Won't work, won't work...
