[Closed] On-One inbred sliding dropout brake problem

IIRC mine came with spacers for the mounting bolts.

Also, setup the brake side tensioner to pull forward.

You'll see why if you don't 🙂

What al said. You need spacers. Assuming that you do mean sliding not slotted

My second hand Inbred frame didn't have the rear caliper spacer so i bought some longer mounting screws and went looking for something to act as a spacer...

Turns out the inner part of a chainring bolt is just long enough to sit between the frame and the brake adaptor and act as a shim.

I used the concave and convex washers from some V brake pads on mine - work a treat. If you get realy stuck I might have some hanging about.

Cheers ive managed to get some spacers the same as Hicksy but ive now found ive bent my flaming rotor!

epicyclo how do i do that?

epicyclo how do i do that?

The reaction of the disk brake pulls the sliders backwards on the left side and this prevents that.

I don't have a photo, but if you can't see how to do it I'll pull the frame out of the attic and take a photo to show how to do it.

cheers ill have a go when i get home

Here you are -

cheers i see what you mean now ill have a go when i get home

I wouldn't stress about the LHS

Neither of my brake side ones have ever moved.

Mine hasn't moved ever in 5 years of ownership. Second the v-brake spacers as a substitute.

Mine moved several times. No amount of tension on the slider bolts would hold it.

This stopped it.

You a bit of a chubber?

My missus reckons I have a fat head... 🙂
