Can this be used with rim brakes

He is correct in his observations when they receive the disc brakes, they have the frame with studs ready to receive them.

Yes, you will be able using Alfine 11 with the brakes on the rims. However, if you use the setting for the disc brakes you'll be better served in terms of safety and performance. I am suggesting you to use it with disc brake because my setup is like that and I'm very pleased with it.

(Im not a 'bike person' so bear with my lingo) I wouldn't see why not as it attaches to the bars with hooks that seem basic enough to fit on most any shape (mine is on a retro style, chopper handle bars and works fine). I wasn't sure about your disc brake question though... the support rod fits on the bolt in the center of the front wheel... not sure how much room the disc brakes require. Perhaps not entirely helpful, but maybe some insight.

You could use rim brakes. You could just take the arm of the hub and the brakes would not work. Doug

Brandon, it could, however, beware as I used it on my softail and had major problems braking. The reservoir would get hot and The brakes would not work. O would never buy again

It does work with disc brakes. I mounted it on a 29er with mechanical discs. No worries?

my guess is it will work. the tire is wider but should be Ok. my tires are wider than my rims, It works great, looks great also.

Yes these should work. I have ran these pads on 26" and 700c rims. I have used them on cantilever, V and road brakes.

No, you need a different model, one that takes the Shimano center lock disc brake. It's available on Amazon. The hub shown can only use either a rim brake or a roller (drum) brake.

Probably not. The fork on this bike is cheaply made. I tried fitting SRAM and Shimano brakes to the fork but because of the way the fork is drilled it didn't fit properly.

I've got this rack on a Surly which has Caliper brakes. This rack is adjustable so I can't imagine why it wouldn't fit a bike with disc brakes. good luck

As a previous person stated, these are long reach brakes. Measure from the center of the mounting point to the center of your tire rim. If the distance is within the adjustment range of the brake pads they should be fine.

Depends on which frame it is. It's highly likely the frame has cantilever style mounts though, and these wouldn't work for that. If you do have the correct mounts, is then simply a matter of wheel/tire size and the distance from the brake mount to the breaking surface. I'd imaGine you'll need some pretty long brake arms to reach the rim. I fought this for months, eventually I the them in the spare parts bin and made a New wheel with an sram automatix 2 speed coaster brake hub. Worked out much better for me. Hope that helps you, if not feel free to ask more questions!

I dont see why not. The roller height adjusts. I have a 26 in rim. You wont want to use a mb tire ( u can though) but it should fit that size rim.

Theoretically yes, but you might have cable tension and pad wear issues. I'd go ahead and get brakes more suited to a smaller rim size

I have disc brakes but I believe it should work for both. All the rack does is it is extra wide for the disc breaks but has a boss that comes in at the mounting point which should work for either.

No. These only work with cantilever brakes and possibly v-brakes, but definitely not disk brakes.

It will work. It is the actual outer diameter of the tire and not the rim. The physical tire is smaller.
