  • Where can I buy these packages for the disk brakes?

  • It sounds like Egon from Ghostbusters.

  • "threaded-ed"

  • my bike has disc breaks in the front except the back are v breaks and i wanted to switch to disc break in the back to is this possible, can you make a video on how to do that

  • I have a Hope Try-All disc brake and i have a shimano adapter and i dont know how to screw the adatpter on my brake pliz help. Thanks!

  • I watched this video over again just to laugh at the way he talks!

  • which is better??

    v brake or disc brake???

    HELP!

  • @azamzzr250 disc brakes work better cause they can operate at higher temps and work better in mud and wet conditions .. if you set them right mechanical discs work just as well as hydraulic ones

  • Man u did it in a confusing and wrong way, u are supposed to put the wheel and rotor before tightening the caliper, u did it but messed up at first, ha I got the same tires and brake calipers!

  • if its a mech disc brake why would i need different brake levers and cable?

  • @hallmonitor98 Yes (one is a tube for brake fluid the other is a cable).

  • @spadoutDOTcom well if I am going from rim brakes to mech disc brakes, I don't need new levers and cable to I?

  • @hallmonitor98 nope just new cable adn housings so its long enough

  • @hallmonitor98 if you've got mechanial disc brakes then you don't need any different levers or cables just new cables and outers so there long enough

    if it was hydro though you get everything when you buy it then you just fit the hose if its not all ready done and install it on the bike and then bleed it

  • what kind of calipers are those?

  • @thrashworld6 Avid Juicy 5

  • what kind of calipers are those?

  • what kind of calipers are those?

  • My current hubs do not have the ability to accept the disc, do I have to repalce the entire wheel, or can I just purchase a hub and use the same spokes and rim, then install the disc?

  • @PDopey Either way works, but I would suggest buying entire new wheels, because the cost of a new hub and getting the wheel built and new spokes if you need them won't be much different than buying a new wheelset, which you could get as disc specific.

  • do we need a specific lever and wire for disc brakes ??? or is the same like V brake ?? someone help me please !!

  • @bisalyep Yes both are different. What type of bike are you trying to add disc brakes to? Spadout.com

  • @bisalyep NO!! you don't at all you can even use bmx brake levers if you only used one finger to brake instead of moving every thing further up your bars

    all you need to install mechanical disc brakes are :

    new cable

    new outer cable/housing

    obv the wheels that will take disc brakes and again obv the rotor adn calliper . hydraulic breaks come with everything you need straight out the box

  • @bisalyep You could use a v-brake lever on a cable disc brake but not on hydraulic.

  • "Now were going to install our ro-tor"

  • what the fuck man its threaded not threadeded! the massacre starts at 2:21

  • This was helpful and people are making fun of you because you talk funny.

  • Your stem face plate is on upside down.

  • Learn to speak? :|

  • No offense to retarded people, but you sound like one.

  • wth freaking anti cease compound. just say GREASE!

  • hey im looking to get a trek 4300 with out the disk's ...can i install my own disks on the bike ..?

  • @seanypants91 Yes but it's probably more cost effective to buy a bike with disc brakes. You'll need to add disc brakes, change the brake levers and add rotors. So lots of upgrades.

    Thanks,

  • hey i notice your front suspension are rock shox are dose good and have a smooth ride?

  • @T88BOOSTA Ya I've been very pleased with them.

  • he likes his anti seize lol..cant say i blame him

  • Is there an order to install the breakes (front first then rear or viceversa)?

    While taking the old brakes out,, do i need to bleed them, or is it all sealed , meaning it wont leak??

    Thanks.

  • No order, And if you are removing the entire unit you won't need to bleed them.

  • david guest?

  • do you need a spacial weel to put the disc on

  • no u install the rotter first

  • Some one Help me please! I have Air in Oil....

    What sould i do? Please ... I have Shimano deore lx.. Thank you every one who help me!

  • Hey,

    All you need to do it re bleed your brake, do you know how to do that?

  • Bleed your brakes, so basically if you don't know what that is, go to a bike shop and let them do it :D

  • man, this is some sexy music...

  • i have a Fuji Panic and i am very interested in installing disks on them. it has the holes on the fork so they could be outfitted with it but the only think i really need to know is how i can attach the rotor to the wheel. is there any adapter needed?

  • you need to have a hub that can take the disc brake, notice how that hub has the holes for the rotor in it and most bikes that come with cantilever/pad brakes wont have a disc compatible hub.

  • while searching i finally found the solution to my problem and for anyone else that wants to know. they sell adapters that can can fit the center of the wheel like a glove instead of entire wheel swap out which can be costly. But even so i guess going for the disks can be very costly but i think will be worth it because of its superior & smoother stopping power.

  • oh well an adapter is a new concept to me for the hub i thought they only made them for the fork. Thanks!

  • Great Video... Helped me install my brakes properly.

  • Thanks! Check out the rest of our videos when you need to install other bike parts

  • Excellent video. VERY helpful.Thanks.

  • NP and thanks for the feedback.

  • Oot and Aboot?
