Rear Nippon conversion??

(1/3) > >>

pickle:
Can i convert this rear nippon to a Potts Mod front?  maybe changing the adjuster bolt and the lttle bit at the quick release that the cable sits into?  can it be done?

wildon:
I've got a new dc pots mod quick release that you could swap with that one  :daumenhoch:

pickle:
you sure it can be changed?  the actual quick release is rivetted on....or do you mean the little bolt on part?   :daumenhoch:

brummie:
old qr is cut off and the potts mod qr fitted
the adjuster is different for a front as well rob
both the above parts are available at porkchops

alternatively just cut off the qr and fit a cable guide. take off the adjuster and set it up as you would an fs880 caliper
you will need a longer spindle as well
get a bulldog front for 9.99 and swop all the parts maybe  :-\

wildon:
grind off the rivit and press the new one in.  I can do it for you if you like .. i use a friends industrial press  :daumenhoch:

i have a spare one of these .. http://porkchopbmx.com/Dia-Compe-replacement-quick-release-for-front-brake-1008304.htm

then you just need one of these .. http://porkchopbmx.com/Dia-Compe-Brake-Adjuster-FRONT-883QLADJ.htm
