Which frames were made for Sachs Power Disc?

[coyut]

I just got a Sugino disc wheel which has a modified Hügi hub with custom Sachs disc.
The modification was done by a Swiss guy who also designed some brakes for race cars.
The custom star is made out of titanium and also the brake disc was custom made.

Now I think about if I should remove the brake disc and use the wheel for some project.
Or if I should look out for a frame that had a rear sachs mount.

I know the Cannondale Super V-4000 DH had such a Sachs mount. But there must have been other frames with this mount.

Any information would be great.

There was a Sachs labeled MTB, always in red color with M4 disc and full Quarz/New Success with Power disc.
The bike made it in any brochure or catalog, but may have been rather a demo version to showcase top of line Sachs products.


Hercules had some Bikes like the models Alaska or Alabahma,

also Centurion the Backfire Pro 1997, equipped with the Power disc.


edit, have added still some pictures

I could add some more details and pictures if you like.

Thank you very much.
I'm looking for something more "fancy" to add this wheel to.

I do understand, just there was nothing cool with Sachs Powerdisc.
A few German and not hip Bike brands had been other than Cannondale the only remaining Sachs customers using there disc brakes but also other components as OEM.

I also can't remember have seen "any special" bike with power discs. But I thought maybe I missed some

there had been some rare and a bit more exotic ones too.

Fuchs (german custom manufacturer) had also Power Disc


Schauff (sorry again for the boring German brand) had a carbon Monocoque full suspension in 1994 called SUSPAC.

This was also shown with Power Disc


I never have seen one in real, nor an offer, but style wise, your disc wheel would fit there pretty well

I have found meanwhile that VOTEC has used power disc for a while.
Ad from 1994 below, the hardtail VOX had Sachs dics.

and this model Cougar from 1996


Votec also produced the Porsche Bikes. Some, depending on year and variant, do have Power Disc.


One more, in the Sachs brochure there is a DH bike from Peugeot

it was the model Team line 5000


Just not sure if your disc wheel would be a proper fit to the Votec or Peugeot bikes, maybe once those noticeable bikes showed up the period of having disc wheels was a bit over already?

Just this Peugeot looks like that the only thing missing is a rear Sugino disc wheel

@joglo Thank you very much for the awesome feedback

The Schauff would be cool but Votec is probably a more realistic option to find.
