Brake Upgrade On Ebay
« on: 14 March 2006, 21:20 »
Hi.

Does anyone know if these go straight on, no messing (apart from that I'll need to buy bigger pads)?

Also, do they fit under 16" rims. ie Montreal 1 & 2's?

Thanks.

Ah, nuts! Looks like I'll just have to uprate my pads then, & see how that goes.

Cheers.

Yeah, but lets be fair, if it meant you could sell them would'nt you tell a buyer "yeah they'll fit"

I guess, some would, some wouldn't.....

Would have the perfect excuse for some 18" Ultra Leggera's, then! :grin:
