i assume its a dmr hub so yeh i think you can get a screw on adapter thingy

 

[jakestein]

[jakestein]

dsc hub?

 

[andrew]

he meant disc hub, if it has holes in it for a disc to screw on to

 

[CHEWY]

disc hub... as in has the bolt pattern for attaching a rotor

 

[jakestein]

ok so being a dmr unit it should? if not get an adopter or a new hub i guess thanks

this board is great for getting ya info fast!

 

[CHEWY]

just go have a look at it and see if it has 6 screw holes in the side of the hub witch the brakes go on

I might of missed something here, but why would you want to run a rotor on the back and not on the front?

 

[S.]

Cos it's more hardcore to run into stuff because you couldn't stop in time.

 

[CHEWY]

if ur going rear brakes only, which is what most dirtjumpes do

 

[andrew]

thats a disc (front) hub, and

thats a non disc (rear) hub. if you have the above hub, you can get an optional disc mount to screw on

 

[jakestein]

well i will use it for dirt jumping and i dont need a brake on the front.

it will need an adapter and locknut about 50bucks so thats ok

its all the rage these days

I really don't understand the point of that rear hub. I have heard of a lot of street riders who have tried to use it but say that it's crap, because if you grab some brake going fakie, you can unscrew the adaptor. Why not just put on the IS mounts?

 

[andrew]

yeh there should be some sort of lock ring
