Wright Pads Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Oddly i've one of them sat ontop of my XTR on the side here. No bolts booster only, never used it so can't say how well it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed91 Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Well, I use V's on my Base TA26, but I'd refuse to use them without a booster as they feel awful otherwise. I only use a crappy old/ unbranded one and it works fine for me, so I'd think that a carbon one would be lovely and stiff. Go for it.

RobinJI Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Yeah, I saw those on CRC the other day, was thinking they looked pretty good for a tenner, anyone know if theres room to drill them to 4 bolt? or know about the tyre clearence?

Wright Pads Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 The bottom spacing is about 90/91mm apart.Height of the booster on total is 136mm.I've taken some pics for you of it with an XTR drilled to 4 bolt and an RB (Onza made) 4 bolt to show you! Have overlapped the boosters to hsow you off it is!4 bolt really is 100mm apart at each mount across the stays!Pics were taken at full res on camera 5MP, 2592x1944 and set to superfine and macro. The caemra is doggy and i've had to resize pics to 800x600 15'' TFT screen size. Also no flash! Also i've not spun the image round as i forgot...soz!Hope these are okay and help!Pete - Wright Pads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinJI Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Ah, sweet, cheers Guessing from those that the lower bolt holes are too narrow for my 4-bolts (94mm spacing) and there isnt really any room to drill it out any wider, could just use the top 2 bolts of the 4-bolt mounts and scrap the lower section all together. Gotta say the one on CRC doesnt look quite the same as the one you'e got there Pete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orgun_Donor Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Was about to say, they are completely different boosters... so thats a completly pointless set of pics.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wright Pads Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 (edited) Too mins, will go turn it over and post a new pic and prove you all worng!Edit: Ahem? Oh and it's not even real carbon fiber! It twists about 6''+ each direction. But braking force wise is stiff as hell! It's metal and plastic coated!Pete Edited November 7, 2006 by Wright Pads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orgun_Donor Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Fair enouf, but why you take pics of the back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pluc Posted November 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Hi,I not want to know if fit for 4-bolt, I use v-brakes and would use for this.Now that it said that are bad, I not get. Thanks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wright Pads Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 They stop the brake flexing but if your rear end flexs when you move ie a twist then this will be no good.If you also said 1st time for V's problem been sorted sooner.
