disc mount

[mike&nat]

hey i just got a hardtail frame but it has no back disc mount cause its like a oversized bmx and i want to put a back disc brake on it but it doesnt have those holes at the back so would i be able to put something there like those holes at the back, so i can use back disc brakes????

I have welded a disc mount onto a alloy frame once and it worked fine. You just have to make sure that it is perfectly in line with the dropouts

my frame is cromo,
so for $165 i can get a proper I.S disc mount fitted for my frame? from where?

www.gripsport.com.au Click on the "Photo Album" button and there's a whole album there of disc brake mounts and how it's done.

What frame is it?

And is there any real reason to have discs? I don't want to take any work away from Grip, but have you asked yourself why you need discs? if it's an "oversized bmx" bike, I'd be more inclined to run V brakes.

cause disc brakes are better

cause disc brakes are better

for what, folding on the coping or getting in the way when you grind a ledge?

dosen't sound like it'll be a very useful 'big bmx'
