squince Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Its a shit idea.its bound to snap the mounts off?The pressure is pushing the mounts away from the frame rather than into it when there on the ''right'' side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayn3 Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Will the brake not be quite spongy, cause it looks like the bit the brakes are between are very thin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleee Posted July 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Its a shit idea.its bound to snap the mounts off?The pressure is pushing the mounts away from the frame rather than into it when there on the ''right'' side.I think the mounts are actually integrated into the chainstay's in some way perhaps by way of some sort of CNC type thing.Not sure exactley how it would work but it's definately something I'd like to find out more about....

Matt_Tupman Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Its a shit idea.its bound to snap the mounts off?The pressure is pushing the mounts away from the frame rather than into it when there on the ''right'' side.HAHAHAHAHA!!Got any proff to back up that wild acusation?I think it's a wicked idea! Looks like the mounts are CNCd so I don't think there should be any worry about stiffness. Looks neat aswell and if the hose is run on the insides of the stays then you should never have to worry about splitting a crossover.

JT! Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Maybe it's not intergrated, but underneath the stays, and some kind of matching clamp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Token Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Where does all the hosing go? through the abdomen an out of the colonsorry, i imagine it'd go through the frame to follow through with the neat fashion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ali C Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 could be a hoffman, a german frame maker.the maggie is sandwiched between two plates, the plates act as boosters which should make the brake plenty stiff, could even make the frame feel "softer" as the back end might have a bit of up/down flex because of plates rather than tubes.who knows.........god?

Monty99 Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 (edited) Yes, it's a HoffmannThe IBS (integrate brake system) is strong as hell (even with a RB lever)but not THAT easy to adjust.I heard that the dropouts make no problems and work well.Oh those are 26".But the IBS is also available on 20" bikes.Hoffmann makes also custom Geo...They look very beautiful live!
