Title: Hammerhead rear disk adapter?
Post by: thespiessman on December 15, 2007, 09:26:47 am

I just started to strip down and rebuild my K2 Proflex 4000. It should be a fun winter project. I have been researching rear disk brake mounts. I really would like to get the Hammerhead for the carbon rear swing-arm. Is there anywhere this is still available? or does anyone have any ther suggestions such as the Woodsman adapter. Any help would be great.

I Have a K4000 but with aluminium swingarm
Seehttp://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dsn2d72_2hpc46dgg (http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dsn2d72_2hpc46dgg)
I ordered the wrong Hammerhead CAHH2K which only fits Carbon swing arms.
Do you have any clue to help me for finding an adpter?

Thanks

At some point K2 used those holes to hold a special disk brake mount. I have this disc mount on my 4000. Maybe IronHorse would have a replacement.

Won't Mike (Hammerhead) trade/exchange it for the proper adapter for you?

Romarik,
If Mikw is unable to do the trade exchange thing and you want to sell the "carbon" hammerhead to get the "Aluminium" one, then we may able to do a deal. If you're interested ping me an e-mail and we'll go rom there
Cheers
