Hi all,
I have a 2000 Cannondale Raven 900SX, I have the original Coda expect disc brakes, and I hate them, they squeak and squeal (after one ride that I took the bike out from the shop to have my pads replaced and brake set-up), the rear one it not really strong and I want to replace them.
The wheel set I have now is a Coda wheel set (4 bolt discs), so I will buy a used lefty wheelset with a standard 6-bolt disc hub.
My question is what brakes will fit the lefty fork mounts and my rear caliper mount? I also don't know what size discs I have on (the original ones), just that the rear disc is small then the front one. Can I buy just any XC disc brakes and they will fit?
Anyone ever did this?
Thanks!
