Tioga Disk Drives

Quick question about the old disk drives...

Were they designed for hard tails only or can they be used with softys as well?

either way they still look v cool imo.

Cool pic, nice smooth course!

Don't see why you can't use Disk Drives with either hardtail or full sus

herbold used 1 on full suspension also

Yep, plenty of folk used them on full sus bikes before they started becoming rare (breaking) lol

Regret selling mine now though, noise from them is immense

dunno why all the new skool kids are bleating about skin suits in DH and it ruining the image of the sport...These pics prove they have been about for ages and it has never damaged the sport....

Would love to build a rep of that Tomac bike

looks likely skin suits are gonna be banned from dh racing
