RC200 (F3 I think) and disc

liquid violence · Mar 28, 2007

Sorry if this has been asked a million time before butI did try searching (honest).

Ive got a canti only RC200 and a disc drop out, thanks to Gil at the cycle shed, but no idea how big a disc rotor I can squeeze into my frame. Can anyone help?

(I was thinking of hope hubs and 160mm Hope mono minis if thats any useful info)

Thanks.

would have thought 160 would be fine, but best give gil a shout!

Should be fine with both a 140mm and 160mm

Let me know if you have a problem

Ta Gil, I had asked you in an email but I thought it never hurts to ask about.

160 on the rear will be fine and astheticaly the most pleasing specially
with a wavy rotor.
but it depends on your mount and to some extent on the caliper your fitting

Bit of a late update I know but I got 185 front and 160 rear Hope Mono Minis fitted (new model with the sawtooth rotor) along with some 06 RC39's. Loads of rotor clearence at the back but I cant see me ever wanting to go bigger.

Now I'm working on the slightly wheelie happy nature uphill (just moved the seat forward and the stem down a touch) and my tendancy to pinch puncure every ride going down cos I'm going quicker

.

p.s. Thanks Gil, the drop-out works a treat.
