Why would a waif like you need anything more than 160 mm rotors?
-
• #6153
No reason, certainly not on the back!
You had a pompetamine for a bit, right? What did you do for rear brakes?

Hi everyone, Im looking for XL Pomp, preferably FS, not full bike. Preferably in raw.
Must be shipped to Poland.
-
• #6155
I had a pair of Spyres on it, 160 mm front and rear.
-

F+F in raw are only £150 right now on planet x...
-
• #6157
£150 in blue, £200 in raw
-
• #6158
I guess he'll need to pay £50 more to make his dreams come true
-
• #6159
That's only like €180.
-
• #6160
I know, but I also can buy whole bike for 200GPB.
Last year there was a deal in which you could buy Pomp with finishing kit for 2 hundreds, I am waitng for it. -

It must have been discussed on here, rear wishbone.
Without drilling a mudguard, is there a mudguard adaptor knocking around somewhere?
There must be something. -
• #6162
Why not drill it?
-
• #6163
I drilled it.
Then redrilled it when I realised the hole was about 5mm off.
-
• #6164
Pretty sure I'll drill, but I'm just checking.

Measure trice 🙃
-
• #6166
Measure as many times as you want, if you've got dicks for thumbs like me....
-
• #6167
Don´t measure, mount everything and then centre-punch the guard in place...?
-
• #6168
If plastic guards then mount everything, stick allen bolt on end of allen key, hit it with the torch, screw into place through the guard.
If metal, measure about 6 times, then do the centre punch thing coz your still not sure and finally, drill it 5mm from where you should have.
-
• #6169
Torch? You mean hammer right?
-
• #6170
Heat it to melt through the plastic.
The molten plastic will then act as primitive threadlock. -
• #6171
Kick the bolt through the mudguard into the seatstay hole thingie, which you've spat in first to lube it up.

Shout "FUCKING BUILD YOURSELF, TWAT!" at a pile of bike parts on your kitchen floor.
-
• #6173
Er. That's my normal method.
Involves beer too.
-
• #6174
Rotor bolts are fouling the fork leg on my pompetamine build. how's this even possible.

@theshipwright did you have issues with this? Wheel is in straight. I'm baffled.
180 disc with 160 adaptor if i recall.
Best pic i could find
Axle all the way back in the dropout, 42mm fit barely
With smaller tyres 160mm disc is fine
