Guest Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 Soooo nice man. Have you plans for fitting the brakes to the frame so they will work with the 26" rim, most monty rear rims are 25" and as far as I know the frames are designed for that only..What year is that? It looks new...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishy Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Hey, I had to make adapters for my old monty, make sure you buy a good booster if your going to use it, because with the adapters the frame flexs loads.

SomeoneNew Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 (edited) Erm not at the minute but I might be able to get some tomorrow/ sooner rather than later but its basically a piece of alu about 7x2cm with 2 hole for the 25inch mount then to holes offset in the right place for a 26inch wheel but moved in slightly closer because i have a thin rear rim(D521). hope that makes some sense I'll get some pics soon!LewisP.s you could always use evo mounts. I did for awhile they work quite well but a little stretched and I think the bolts bend slightly aswell but always good ifyour in a hurry to test it out Edited June 23, 2006 by SomeoneNew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felippe Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 Hey, I'm building Monty as well and I've got the adaptors. If u want I can send u the measures and pics so u can make the proper ones. I think it's not that difficult. I'm just wandering, how did the rear 26" 2.5 fit the rim. I've got the 26" rim already but it seems to to be not enough space there for 2.5 tire. is there enough room for that? Thanx. Some pics of my Monty (in a building phase as well) It's gonna be a street-trial bike, that's why suspension fork (I havent cut the steering tube yet). I'll send the pics as I progress as well. Only the frame is used, all the other componetns are gonna be new. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
