potent Posted January 22, 2008 Share I recently purchased a silverback alpine 2008 model. I find the brakes ( tektro V's) work well until I hit the mud /water. I was thinking of upgrading to hydraulic disk brakes. Can anyone suggest the best brakes to buy price / quality wise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudsimus Posted January 22, 2008 Share KCNC disc go for +- R1200 for a set. Then you still need hubs. So you are looking at about R2000. Almost what the bike cost. I would sell the bike and buy something better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#Pete# Posted January 22, 2008 Share Second that, I'm afraid. Ride it till you can upgrade the bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotSoBigBen Posted January 22, 2008 Share Don't know about calipers and stuff but I have ordered some of those Alligators rotors at 100ZA rond that were mentioned a while ago here on the hub! Should arrive this week ...... Look a bit 'Ninjaish' but lets see ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brakkies Sport Fotos Posted January 22, 2008 Share potent, check die picture. Sien jy daai onderste 3 boute wat die disk vashou. As jou huidige HUB 6 van daai gaate het, kan jou hubs disks vat. as dit nie daar is op jou hub, is dit nuwe hubs wat oorgebou moet word, of nuwe "disk" rims Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brakkies Sport Fotos Posted January 22, 2008 Share Bigben, daai silver roters is by CWC ook vir R100 , maar sy presiese model boetie, die goue kleur outjies is R150. Daai goues gaan lekker bling lyk. ek sien ook cwc het 'n helse klomp Alligator disk brake pads, so +- R150 'n stel wat pas op verskeie brieke. Wat dink jy van Aligator pads?popeye2008-01-22 05:01:15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brakkies Sport Fotos Posted January 22, 2008 Share maybe I'm confuse with the rotor pricing, maybe its less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
