mr_malcolm Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 quite and interesting idea.think it would work/look best with two disks on the frontlike the superbikes have but it would probally be a bit to much weight and the stoping power if it worked 100% properly would be a bit more then you need.also if anything goes wrong and it needs a re-bleed or anything could take a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Quigley Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 I've seen a REALLY cheapy bike (most likely from a cataloge or Argos) with dual front discs (both shitty cable ones) looked like it weighed a ton and worked about as well as pissing into the wind.

lankyri Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 hang on, on the second page someone said about having a double vee could that work i dont no anything but the cable would have to be thicker to fray to get to either brake, unless you only use one cable so it goes through the front of the fork and then curves round to the back (a u turn basically) only problem with that would be the vee on the back of the fork would have a delay wouldnt it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_Neal Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 unless you only use one cable so it goes through the front of the fork and then curves round to the back (a u turn basically)You got it! One cable run through the V as normal but instead of clamping it, use a piece of outer to route it to the 2nd V (I can't remember how it was done exactly as it was in MBUK about 9 yrs ago).Used on Pace forks as they have the clamp on V mounts.
