disc brakes

[dmw56]

You have me curious - I thought warping was due to overheating?

Me too. I thought out in the open like that they would stay pretty cool. The front end on this pretty light too, so weight and overheating should not be a problem.

from what I have learned it is from overheating and cooling too quickly.

Yes, probably true. But I don't think they will overheat.

Great! it was just something I was thinking about. I have warped many rotors.

Hmmm, drive slower!!!!

Well now what would be the fun in that. No I am trying to slow down a little, just a little though. But i have my bike if I want to go really fast.

This setup is what I need but I wonder if my 21" spoke rims would work on this hub???Anyone??????

To mount the Radir wheels on the rotors we had to grind down the center area of the hub a little to give the inside of the wheel clearance. It worked out fine.
