Awesomely simple way to convert that old 26" frame into a fast rolling 700c city/touring rig.
Super simple and elegant part I have been looking for. I have a nice old MTB frame but I wanted to set up 700c wheels for communting/city duty. Unless you have a frame with disc mounts/wheels or want to spend $$$ on some Paul Motolites, you're outta luck. There is the option of fixed rear wheel (no thanks) or welding/brazing new posts or disc mounts on the frame but then you'd need to repaint (I like the 90s purple paint and its in great shape). These allowed me to relocate my brake posts to position the cantilevers to hit square on the rim. Cheaper than a welding job and new paint. Job done!
Not enough reach to running 700c/29" wheels on 26" mtb frame.
Trying to run a 700c/29" wheels on my 26" wheel mtb frame. I was hoping this would allow me to move the v brake high enough to reach the rim. But it still too short. Good product but not enough reach.
