Topic starter

Hi All,

My mate has a 2000 Stumpjumper without disk mounts and wants to run a disk on the back. What options are there? I remember A2Z used to do one but I can't see anything on their website.

The bike is a full suspension if that makes any difference.

Ta,

AtoZ adaptor - £24 from the WoollyHatShop

I have one on my horizontal-slot singlespeed. It's a faff removing the back wheel but works well otherwise.

Hope used to do a funky convertor too, no doubt someone will be along shortly if they're still available....

SUpercycles do one that's similar to the old Hope one

Not used one though. Had an A2Z on my Kula once and it was okay. Did the job, but like StirlingCrispin says, a pain to get the wheel out
