Default Why do some forks and frames have brake rotor size limits?

Now _that_ would be the dream for the front wheel of my MTB.


So why aren't you using it? I thought you were an engineer.


For the umpteenth time:

1. I don't have a lathe and other tools.


I thought you were an engineer.

2. It requires adapting the fork mounts to a motorcycle caliper and the
handle has to come from a Yamaha.


I thought you were an engineer.

3. I just don't have that much time right now.


You spend too much time whining on Usenet.

4. I just converted the MTB to 8" rotors for both wheels. Any engineer
woth his salt will recognize when good enough is good enough.


Then why did you say " Now _that_ would be the dream for the front wheel
of my MTB" ?

I agree that any engineer worth his salt will recognize when good enough
is good enough.

Failing to do that is your entire schtick.
