What was the first BMX frame to come with (welded on) Brake lugs?
SaMAlex:
This was the first MTB I saw with a u-brake. I think they were out in 88, so a bit after BMXs were using them :-\

I think the Scorpian breakdancer had 2 rear brakes- an extra rear U brake? As well as the rear caliper, both were bolt on though.
BMX Action did a feature on a BMX with Cantis, or rollercams in 83/84, but they were also bolt on.
SaMAlex:
Thats really interesting Johann, thanks for bring those up. Next time someone ask about the first Bolt-on center-pull brakes, then you'll be spot on topic.
Shame its no use at all on this WELDED ON BRAKE LUGS thread!!! :tickedoff: :LolLolLolLol:
fugazi:
I'm thinking early '87, didn't really make My brakes any better with Tuffs though until I figured out how to set them up :LolLolLolLol:

Thats really interesting Alex, thanks for bringing this up. Next time there's a subject of U brakes on MTBs, then you'll be spot on forums. What is this RADMTB.co.uk :LolLolLolLol:
