I'd be interested to hear how you get on with the 180 forks when they arrive. I've got an old set of 36 Vanillas on my Seven and have been thinking of updating them, but I'm not sure whether to stick with 160s or try the 180s.

Nice bike ASR 7! I still want one!!! I will seek for a test ride before I go ahead build my own ASR 7 near future.
Keep posting and how it rides!
Note: I read the Yeti site about ASR 7, now it said can mount rear 203 mm rotor disc on ASR 7. Is that correct?

Hi Deafyeti, Yeh looks like you can mount a 203mm rotor on the rear, but it might be a bit overkill... Im using a 203 on the front and a 180mm on the rear and that setup works real well, been down some right steep stuff and they have never faded on me yet. The saint brakes are very strong but take some getting used to, they get instant bite and if its downhill in the wet mud...Do Not use the front as it will lock and wash out...I know its happened to me more than once.... You will not be disapointed with this bike, but they are big machines.... |
