Early disk brakes

[webba]

Does anybody know what disk brakes were made 97/99 apart from the obvious hope , I have a 97 build that i would like to make disk and I am short on options

Hayes or Formula?

thanks any idea of models ? I meant to also ask about period disk hubs

 

[Tazio]

I'm the wrong person to ask but there are plenty of experts who will have the answers on here.

RST, Giant MPH (Hope copies), Rock Shox - there were some cable operated hydraulic calipers too.

Sachs had a few about too from memory.

IIRC, Maguras early efforts were around by 97 too.

I had some formula's back then on a SUNN. Formula had their own hubs back then with the top ones being carbon fibre. Rotors were were 4 bolt. The calipers were not IS standard mounting, they were a formula odd size.

nice brake but being closed circuit they pumped up somewhat after repeated use.
