Looks good. Is that a 160mm Avid BB7 on the rear?

Looking very sweet - would love to see what you could throw together if you put your mind to it! ๐Ÿ™‚ One of the finer 'parts bin emptying' projects I've seen for a while. Make sure you post the finished job up - and let us know what you think to the ride. The 16" frames are the best looking of the lot aren't they? Good work!

Would it be possible for you to do a close up of the adaptor on the rear caliper please, as I am having issues with the same brakes on a 456?

Thanks
Shaun

Thanks Joe. Thats the way that the adaptor was fitted when I received the brakes from CRC, but when I fitted the calliper, the pads didn't line up directly over the rotor. CRC told me to swap the calliper mount upside down. It wont bed in properly at the mo.

Is you wheel all the way home into the drop out?

Yes, I checked that, the calliper is now over the rotor properly but you can see from the scoring on the disc that its not bedding in evenly.
