bikerider Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 I've had a Megamo dual disc, using older style mini's, for past few years. Next bike is a Monty 231 ti, and that'll be dual-disc. I've never had any real problems with them. Set them up well, try and get the mounts faced if possible, spend a bit of time making sure the calipers are aligned about right, and keep them serviced. The mini's I've run have been on there for over 3 years, only just had to give one any real attention, and that was only bleed the system, change the pads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loffa Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 My rear Hope Trials has been awesome so far. And it's a 200mm on a 26" wheel. It is much sharper than I expected it to be, and I haven't had any troubles with it so far. Nice and smooth combined with awesome power. What more could you ask? Go for it!

Go for it!I never tryed rear disc brake before.... and i dont feel that i can trust it... Imagine the force thats is on the little 160mm rotor on the back......Do you think rear disc will hold up with for example CLS ?a HS33 LOOK much more bulletproof than a little 160mm rotor on the back...

nmt_oli Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 go plus 20 on the back, 180 ***.I have a hope SPOT facing tool, and will happily face your frame / fork for a small charge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omgnoseat Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 what do people have against monty's..i never heard of many cracking or anythingand bout the dualdisc, im sure it will hold up, some of the monty riders do some huge stuff and still ride dualdisc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Evil1 Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Do you think rear disc will hold up with for example CLS ?If it can hold danni comas, it can hold anyone with ease lol.Double disk has always been fine with meScott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Pearson Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 I've had dual disc avids and Hope monotrials, they held up over big (BIG) dropgaps, see the roadtrip video or D15C Complete. On the Roadtrip in Bristol I was running a 160 rotor because I'd shattered an adaptor the day before, and that held up to castle park big drop gaps. Should be fine mate. Saying that I'm going back to rear V's for maintenence reasons. But if you got he sponsors then no worries!Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixed Pants™ Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 a little 160mm rotor on the back...Simple answer really, (but slap me with a wet cod and call me TemiTope Joseph Agbato if i'm wrong) but doesn't sponsorship mean you get stuff free, you could just get a bigger rotor and nessescarys for it...

abe Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 the majority of the newer models cracking are due to people cramming a hub that is too wide.ie profile into it therefore prying it apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz M Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 (edited) it will be amazing on small moves and natural itll be ok for decent street stuf but when it comes to big dropdowns and stuff its really really pants it puts you under the impression that itll hold on anything when riding small stuff but when it slips, its slip very fast with hardly any resistance. i ran dual disk for a few days was soo nice on natural though i must admit..street is a big no. like scott said on the natural stuff it holds dani comas with ease so no problems there.Oh and ben montys are strong as hell where did you get the impression that the 06 and 07 montys were so weak from Edited November 4, 2006 by Gaz M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omgnoseat Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 i think a rear disc would hold up on street riding aswell, marco grosenik does some pretty huge stuff in street riding and he is a big fan of dualdisc if i remember right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Kearns Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 He does not really do big drop gaps to rails does he though.He is all sidehops on bunnyhops and front to backs.Dan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ra964 Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 you can try a 203 rotor and with a 19" wheel it will have lots of leverage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
