spode@thinkbikes Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 Nice idea.Matt Staples would have loved one of these. He went mental when he chipped off one of his And of course he's going to go rear disc - all sensible people do eventually ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

br3n Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 can you make me one for my chris king classic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spode@thinkbikes Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Wouldn't just screwing in 6 bolts with large heads also give some sort of protection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davetrials Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 screwing bolts in will do the same, b'cos it cant crush when theres a bolt in there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_Neal Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Got one - well had one for the past 3 years (after flattening 3 tabs on my old BULB).I just got an old disc and cut it down although it's not as swanky as the ninja star one.

chrishayton Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 screwing bolts in will do the same, b'cos it cant crush when theres a bolt in there...lol thats what i was thinkin.i think you ve 'invented' some thing that doesnt need inventing.

basher Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 i think you ve 'invented' some thing that doesnt need inventing.Not really as if you just stick bolts in then the exterior will still get battered and bashed and may leave the disk tab slightly weak but not much i doubt. It would just make the hub more presentable when comeing to sell it, seems a very good idea to me i may do it myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Concussion Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 I'd still go for it dude, just come up with an original design of your own. That ninja star thing is nice though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Rainbird Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 Erm, isn't the point that you also run it if you DON'T have a disc?!Still, the concept would work without the disc there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nafan Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 Can see where you're coming from, but as has been said a bit unneceassary if you ask me...If you are planning on running a disc in the near future, and currently have a different brake , I say go for it, but otherwise may be a waste of time...Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
