If this doesn't fit my Focus fork, what other options do I have for dropping the cable stop to reduce judder?
We swapped to V-brakes, BR-R353, BR-R463 or BR-R573. Problem solved.

Well yeah, I could totally change the brakes but this is a beater so I was trying to do it on the cheap.
Because the brake hole is recessed, I guess most of these hanger adapters aren't going to fit it unless I add enough spacers to push it out past the lip and then use a massive bolt.
Mind you, that Dia Compe hanger is £17 and when a whole brake set is 25..

A kind forum friend is sending a "Tektro 926AL mini v" caliper over to try out.
From what I've read, the arm length of these is 80mm - do you think it would work?
hippy
