Yakima & Disc brake question(6 posts)

Yakima & Disc brake questionmtber
Feb 16, 2002 10:43 PM
I currently have a Yakima with Steelhead rails. Will I need the new "Viper Rail" for a Full Suspesion disc brake machine?(Fork Mount) I will be getting my new giant AC Air Lite in about 3 weeks. I wonder if the Psylo SL clears the steelhead? I just want to know before I go and pick it up with the steelheads, and have a problem with the Disc brakes.

I have a Yakima/Stealhead and carry a Giant NRS XTC1/Hayes discs/SID XC fork......no problem.

I have a Yakima (not sure what model) and my Shimano XT disc on a Z1 wouldn't fit. I cut a small notch into it (hacksaw...dremel would work better)for the caliper to rest in. It's fine. Although, now my bike can only fit in mine, none of my friends' have theirs cut

Try pushing the bar inward

My diskbrake just touched it before and then I pushed in the bar abit and now it works the same and doesnt even touch the caliper anymore

Or do like someone said and cut it out

Hurricane makes a Fork Up model (Riser) that provides the clearance you need. www.hurricanecomponents.com
