Title: Rear brake hanger
Post by: proflex656 on May 10, 2013, 11:49:56 am

Hi guys....has anyone got a rear brake hanger as used on the alloy swing arm please?

I'm restoring an 856 and need the part so I can use the cantilever brakes I have....

Sell, swap or give away anything considered .... Thanks dudes !!

I *might* have the brake hanger from my 756. I'll check when I get home. But you should seriously consider using V-brakes instead, they work SO much better than cantilevers. The cantilever brakes on my 756 made awful noises, but the V-brakes were silent.
