new Dirt Bike frame, brakes don't fit!

(1/4) > >>

JT71:
help

there's not enough room to get my brake on. tried a hombre and an ody evo ii and neither will fit.

there's not enough room to get the brake blocks on and leave a gap for the brake to pull.
even with the small spacers there's not enough room, yes the wheel is slammed, but surely it's supposed to be!

and when i put the tension on the arms, they are going to hit the tyre.

harris:
pics ,i  cant see why they wont fit   ???

bof:
Get some pictures up , there has got to be an answer somewhere.  :daumenhoch:

JT71:
i'll get some pics up tomorrow, i got it working, but there's only a couple of mil tops between the tyre and brake arms, so you can put virtually no tension on the springs
with the small spacers on the blocks rim side, i just get away with it.

i should see alex tomorrow so I'll see what he thinks.

cheers chaps.

If the chainstays are the same width as an LTF at the brake mounts you'll be needing a 1.95 rear tyre...  :daumenhoch:
