Tels disc brake mod

 Are you still using the Crosslinks you adapted to disc brake? How does it perform and have you had any issues? I always admired the neat job you made of it.

Sorry mate do you mean me? I don't have a disc conversion at all Old Proflexer has about the best Ive ever seen, so good you`d have thought it was made that way.

Oh my appologies Tel. I thought it was you that did the same sort of thing as Old Proflexer to a set of Girvin AL on a gold xp6/xpx a few years ago?  Who was that then?

Bloody good Idea though Colin just booked the holiday mate, Greece for two weeks, may go to Lefkada for a bit of riding while we are there too, sadly no profex though.
