True Dat, but it was the cable brakes you are counting upon saving you that already had a stick problem.
What's a guy to do?

RIB, Thanks for that link.

From the pic's (cable actuated) it looks like there is a spacer outside of the rotor or is that just a cast/non-machined surface ?

Also I found a set of rear disk brakes for much less (looks very similar to that in the link you posted). . Any thoughts or recomendations on this ?

Thanks

Looks like capitalism at work to me
Unfortunate that link is to a banned former bgw member and sponsor. It's pretty rare that a Sponsor gets banned. I only know of 2.
Try CPP and East Coast Custom. Both are good BGW SPONSORS who sell Ausco cable Brakes.

Yes. But the probability of both front and rear happening at the same time would be....well...play the multi-million dollar lottery first!!!

Okay Dave, Lets try to get back on track with your original question......I just got off the phone with the manufacture... the 4 wheel system now uses a dual master cylinder. Maybe because of just what you fear. With a dual cylinder you can cut the fronts off and still have rears or vise versa.
Now what are you gonna do?

Scotty,

I'm not attempting to downplay your brakes. In fact....I probably would have gone with your brakes had I known about 'em 4 years ago when I installed my Jake's. But.....you know how that goes.

It's good to know that your dual system has a dual chamber master cyl. Honestly, the terrain that I travel....it's a real possibility to lose a brake line via a log or rock.

Now....I really like the simplicity of your rear bolt on disc brakes. But, I just don't like the fact that the caliper is hanging on the bottom. For where I travel, it's an accident waiting to happen.

Can I move that caliper to the top or the rear??

Dave
