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?

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

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

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?
