Dan6061 Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Heatsink make them - http://www.heatsinkbikes.com/?p=veeadapters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixed Pants™ Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 (edited) Yes. They're £29 from www.Heatsinkbikes.comYou could get HS33's for that price 2nd hand from FS/WTD section, but, if you do contact someone selling them, there's a likely chance that they wont sell it to you incase you're not trust worthy.Damn you Dan!

David Biddle™ Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 well get hold of a old vee booster (tekro one) first cut the top of the booster of so you are left with to side parts what should have to gaps so you can screw into your frame.Then get two vee bossers and two bolts so they can tightin on the thread of the vee bossersthen get two washers and drill three small holes for the spring on the vee brake and your sorted to put vees on ur four bolt mounts biddleif you want more info or pictures of a vee adaptor add me to msn biddle20@hotmil.co.uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigman Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 I have just got a set of Onza vee adapters (like heatsink) they are awsome, they have a much lower profile than the heatsink ones, and should be cheaper, only thing is that they are not availiable to buy at the moment, but i was lucky enough to find a guy with a t-pro selling some.Before i had these i made some, they worked very well, the only real problem with making them is finding someone with the correct tap for the vee bosses, as it is a funny size (M10 x 1.25).If you can find someone who wants to sell a set of onza adapters (i may have a set fo sale....) or u can make some/get heatsink ones i would stick with a rear vee, they ROCKAdam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
