Title: PPP Power discs
Post by: Mikku on May 24, 2014, 02:01 PM: I love these but did any bikes come with them as standard, or were they only ever sold as aftermarket add-ons? Thanks in advance.

Don't forget bike shops would build bikes from frame sets and put what they had in stock on them, so it may have been bought with it on just not from the factory :)
