bikerboysam1 Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 I just have a couple of quick questions:Firstly, I am going to buy a 185mm front Avid Ball Bearing 7 Mechanical Disc Brake. I just went down to the bottom of the page to order it, and I noticed that it says 'IS Mount' after each of the other sizes but not the 185mm. What does this actually mean? Does it matter? Secondly, I need to buy a new Magura HS33. I was just looking through the list on CRC, and saw that there were two different types! Which one do I buy for my Monty? The Magura HS33 Single Brake or the Magura HS33 Evo II Single Brake? Thanks, any help will be much appreciated! Thanks a lot,Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endohopper Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 As for your first question , "I.S" stands for International Standard , so will fit most forks , except some suspension forks by Manitou , which no one uses for trials , anyway .

Endohopper Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 I think any size disc should fit , although I don't know what forks you run . I.S fitting simply means that the caliper sits in the normal place / position , and doesn't dictate disc size . Can't help you with the HS33 question , though , other than to say good choice .

King C Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 In response to the second question the HS33 Evo II brake looks to me like the 2005 version and the other one just looks like the older style. Its up to you really but alot of people prefer the older ones to the newer ones. By the way withthey both come with new mounts and they run on vee brake mounts so you want either vee brake adaptors( http://www.heatsinkbikes.com/?p=veeadapters or http://www.bikedock.com/posit/shop/index.p...gory=20&group=1 (£7.99)) or you want 4 bolt clamps( http://tartybikes.co.uk/products.php?product=brake_spares (first two)).Hope this helps and its not too confusing .King Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleee Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 CRC only have front maggies which are pre '05, thats what the RH beside the colour indicates.Id get in touch with tartybikes I saw they had a good few sets of differant coloured calipers.
