Title: ACS B.O.A???
Post by: Mdbh on February 19, 2012, 01:09 PM

hi guys,
is it possible to run a rear acs boa on the front? i know the cable adjusters will be the other way around but are these not just bolted on? or are they fixed in place?

rear axle is too short, 6mm boa's are rare, 10mm ones are around if u drill out your forks, failing that look at dia compe nippons as they were popular in 92
