  • Disc brakes on 99 Klein Attitude?

    I'm thinking of refreshing my Klein with a set of disc wheels and brakes. I have a post mount on the rear chain stay with bolt holes approx 22mm apart.

    Can anyone advise where I can get a mount from to allow me to put either formula's or shimano disc brakes on?

    TIA

    Have a '99 Klein here and I looked into this, you have got a 22mm hayes mount on the frame. Not sure whether adapters will still be available retail but someone may have a 22mm to IS or Postmount laying around.

    I decided against it in the end as I was advised that the small rear facing dropouts often allowed the wheel to eject when disc brakes wear heavily applied.

    This is what you need

    You may need to fit a larger disc for clearance.

    No problems on my Klein with rear facing dropout.
