Dan6061 Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Quoted from the OTN Topic...Not a pad adjuster screwOhhh... Still looks good though, and the 'repair screws' are a good idea...But adjustable pads would be the shiz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blommah Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Wonder if it would work though, all pressure from the brake would transfer to the adjustmentscrews, i`m not an engineer, but from here it seems like it wouldnt just hold up as nice.

And a Hope mono trials has a hell of a lot higher mechanical ratio than a maggie, so it should be fine really. Just have to be at least like a fine 15mm thread to be safe.

RobinJI Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Yeah, I took it as he knows it isn't an adjuster, but he wondered if an adjuster in that place would work. That's what I was replying to anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blommah Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 (edited) Yes i know, but on the other hand you see what power the maggy brings, my guframe moves even with an echo control booster.And i was talking about how it would be if that screw on the pic were an adjustmentscrew.And yes, i know that it isnt.
