Here's one for those experienced in freestyle setups...

Can you use a MX1000 front caliper in potts mod set up?

I was thinking of fitting a set of MX1000s to a StreetBeat that will be delivered shortly. I've just had a gander at the caliper I'm planning on fitting and it doesn't look like it is possible to  switch the brake fittings to make a potts mod work - am I wrong?

Any help or advice would be very gratefully received, cheers  :daumenhoch:

Yes it can be done, wait there & I will take a pic of how  :daumenhoch:

Ok I think this is the best way to do it, as you can return it to a standard front brake after if you need to, all you will need is another Wieman adjuster.

You can drill out the quick release & then just swap the bolt & the adjuster over, but I think this way is better.
