Budget discs

[kaiser]

Cheers Andy lots of good info I reckon I'll scout out the BB's again. I've heard nought but universal praise for them. Apart from the adjustment bit.

ZZ I looked at the tektros.............but I'm a snob

£100 will get you a set of the dual control LXs.

Swap the hoses around (looks like they only have LH front/RH rear) and obviously the dual control bit's no use for an SS but so what? Could always be re-used in some future build

I couldnae do it, those levers are possibly the worst looking bike component ever made.

Reckon I'll go for the cables, BB5 or 7 means I can get some nice levers too

Do you run full length cables?

yup, its just as they came on the peace
£36 a wheel for the tektros

my mate paully had a bad crash cos his juicys failed to stop him earlier
this year ,somewhare up near the hermitage ,35mph or so switchbacks
no brakes ,luckilly he used his head /shoulder and some rocks to stop

Us Jocks have to look after each other mate

Full length cables goods for winter. Nokons even better . Tho spending more on the cables than the brakes seems rather off.......

full length Nokons I've got some odd bits in my cable box but full length would require a bank load
