Retro-fitting rear disc caliper
- Thread starter IDB1
- Start date
There are a couple,the main one and easiest to fit is the A2Z after that is the one i have on,using the short 130mm axle and the bolt on adaptor.Becoming very rare now and if the prices ive seen are anything to go by ,really bloody expensive :shock: .If fact the prices can go above to original cost
Hope did a No2 caliper,used the above system and critical racing did one but to my knowledge that was just for certain GT LTS or STS's
For the life of me ,i dont know who made the one i have

Far i remember the DDG one is for the GT frames and the therapy is best suited to nearly everything else :?
Mine looks very similar the the therapy one ,but i dont know how that one fits onto the axle.
Search 'frame adaptors' on here im sure someone here is using the therapy version

Well since it'll be going on an Avalanche, the DDG one sounds ace (especially at £25 as opposed to the Therapy one at $150 :shock: ) 
They don't look dissimilar to me either.. one thing about the Therapy one is that you have to specify what hub it's for which is great unless you change wheels (and nobody ever does that, do they )

)This is the No2 frame adaptor but it has a brake as part of its construction,whereas the link shows a version that allows any IS mount brake to fit
The ebay thing is the version im using on the torus,but it needs the same short 130mm axle,short spacer[5mm i think]frame bolt to attach it to the frame,as the version from hope[it might be made by hope i really cannot remember for sure.

About 50 quid, tops.

Yes, but it's one of the best. You'll need a Hope hub too , with a shortened axle and narrow spacer.
They do pop up on Ebay ,perhaps once a month or so.
