Are there holes for your brakes in the frame? or is it a track setup.

There are holes for mounting brakes however you may need longer reach brakes for the front.

Forgot to mention....I adjusted my seat and handlebars, and had Ace Hardware attach some brakes on the upper part of the handlebars as well as to make it easier to use the brakes when sitting upright. It is also a good idea to have Ace or someone else qualified to tune it after assembly.

I wish I could answer but I cant.i installed new brake lines on these brakes. The lines were long enough to fit my frame with plenty to spare when delivered. I'm thinking of ordering a set for my wife's bike.

I see what you mean, But on my frame I don 't seem to have holes, back or front. This frame is especially suited for single speed/fixed gear use: usually built-up without fenders. If you want a fender on this frame, I'd use matching fenders, which are fenders that are bolted on directly to the axle, as used to be customary before the "one size fit all" adjustable fenders. Hammered ones would be nice. This frame also exists with other dropouts: maybe worth looking at to compare?

Mine was a complete train wreck assembling because the brakes were already set wrong, I needed a new brake cable right away and I. Obviously didn't have one

Yes, but the cable is very long. I had to wrap it around the frame a couple of times, and that weakened the braking power. You may be better served by spending a bit more on a better brake.

B: I'm not wise enough to retrieve the photos regarding your inquiry. I would suggest articles by Sheldon Brown (now deceased) at Harris Cyclery. This author explains the details of brake systems and the various levers which can mount to the bars and ends you may have.

There are screw holes in the frame, located behind the rear wheels. Installation is very easy. Hope this helps! If not, contact me again.

Your bike should have 2 pre-drilled holes on the frame. Usually bikes come with holes in the seat tube or in the down tube.

Hi,I purchased this bike and has front and back brakes, still its very heavy. I placed a 80cc engine and a moped gas tank in it and its awesome.I dont recomend it if you dont live in a flat city, its too heavy for daily use.regards

Great question! You need to install the front wheel, seat post and saddle, pedals, handlebar, and if you get them, the brake cables. The company recommends that you bring the bike to a bike shop after assembly to ensure that everything is as it should be.

The hole in the rear sprocket that comes with the kit is intended for a 7-speed/derailleur type bike with hand brakes. My current project bike is a single speed coaster brake bike. If you are doing a coaster you will need to enlarge the center hole to clear the coaster brake hub, or purchase a sprocket with the hole enlarged (which is what I did). I'm also adding hand brakes to my bike so it will still have brakes in the event of chain failure or popping off while motoring. Good luck with your build.

No, it's a road bike, not enough clearance for mtb tires on the frame/fork/brakes.

Nicholas, I'd love to help you but just don't know - I'm not a bike expert. I did some research on my frame and parts and made sure they all jived then bought them. They are very good brakes and for the price, hope they do fit your bike because I know you'll love 'em!

More than likely the bike will need to already have discs on it. For a bike to be disc comparable it must have wheels that have disc hubs and a frame that has the proper mounts. Sometimes frames middle to upper end have the proper mounts but you would need to replace your wheels. Do a quick search for disc brake mounts and you'll see what you need to have, as well as a search for disc hub pictures and you will see how the disc mounts to the hub with the 5 bolt system.

Not sure, I had to mount my boards on the highest setting for my feet to fit under the brake lever. After a test ride I had to adjust them down a little for comfort, but I never had a problem with them hitting up against anything. Sorry but good luck to you!

They are set up left brakes front, right brakes rear. I put them on my nomad and am happy with them so far.
