massive headtube and robust physique means I'm getting some crazy brake shudder. I'm trying to fix it with a fork hanger. Anyone know where I can get one? I've seen Kinesis do one but their website reckons they only work with their new fork.

May possibly have a Kona one back in the shop, will try and find it tomorrow when I pop in if you're interested.

Spesh do them as a spare for a tenner. Local dealer should have them or be able to order.

pretty much the same as above. Here, from an online cycle retailer... also check out this forum thread: http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/massive-fork-judder-on-cx-bike-mini-vs-the-cure

Hi .

I have this very issue with my s-works Tricross. I solved it by moving the brake hanger from where it is under the stem, to a hanger that fixes to the front forks, although I'm not 100% that the ec90's have a hole through the centre of the fork to attach it. If you are competeing then I wouldnt recommend going with mini-v's as they are far too powerful for a X bike. See link below to brake hanger, this can be purchased through our special orders team.
