How low can I go ?

<< < (2/5) > >>

Sanmarcopizza:
Bill, if you need to try it out, I have a Primo E-brake on my Pashley....which is residing at Bobs house at the mo.

oberonspacefruit:
a 36 will run on mine, but not a 30. a 30 fouls the brake.

Andy:

Even with a fly brake your chain will hit the brake
Im assuming your still running the T1.
The chainstays on the LAF are a lot lower than yours thats why it works. From memory I think the lowest you can go is about 33t

Andy

oberonspacefruit:
thats what i thought. the lugs are the same no matter wot brake you get.

its whether the chainstays are low enough.

The brakes make a load of diff, A fly brake has a minimal stacking height, if you compare it to an oddy evolver the difference is massive the same goes for the primo E brake but I know what your saying about the difference in chainstays, I think you can o as low as 25-9 on a panterra if you use a fly, unfortunately for billy his T1 wont accomodate the hub he wishes to use.
Time to get a new frame I think Bill
