|   Help......Trek Fuel with Avid Discs | laxman1100
Jan 9, 2002 10:13 PM | | I just got a set of Avid Disc Brakes, and the rear disc brake mount does not fit the IS adapter for the caliper. IT is about 1/2 inch short of fitting. I was wondering if there is an adapter for the rear brake? Please help!!!! |
| half inch which way? | heff®
Jan 10, 2002 12:31 AM | | Are you talking center to center of the adapter holes, or vertically?
You DO have the adapter that bolts onto the Disc-o mount on your frame, right?
If it's verically, check and make sure you didn't get two front brakes, the adapter for the rear is different than the front.

| You do have the bolt-on disc mount... | shiggy©®
Jan 10, 2002 9:43 AM | | ...from Trek that you need to mount the disc?
I am asking because we have seen people try to use the rack/fender eyelets on the dropouts as disc mounts. No slam intended.
Spar¡ has put discs on his Sugar and it required a mount from Fisher (Trek) that bolts to the dropout and then you bolt the Avid IS mount to it. |
