ryan360 Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 Hi does anyone know if you can buy offset mounts for evo fittings because i recently brought a new rim for my bike but at first it didnt fit in between the brakes by about a mil so i sanded the pads down intill it fit except whenever i by new pads i will have to sand them down.

CurtisRider Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 try swapping them round on opposite sides, the mounts are already offset, worth mentioning cos alot of people seem to miss it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnyb92 Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 try swapping them round on opposite sides, the mounts are already offset, worth mentioning cos alot of people seem to miss it...This is true, I had the same problem with my old bike and I swapped them over and it fit like a glove! Hope you get it sorted,Jon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinJI Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 Actualy only Evo 1 mounts are offset, had the same problem getting a combat into a mates 24seven with a maggie on there, he was using the evo 2 mounts which aren't offset, so we just swapped them over for some old evo 1 mounts at the LBS and all is good.So if you have Evo 2s (These ones) then get some Evo 1s (These ones)Thats as off-set as they get though.
