Hi everyone

Im looking at buying some disc brakes, i have'nt seen them yet but the bloke said they are good condition.
Their 8.4" not sure if their vented or not, he said they are the twin piston type caliper, But im not sure if its worth it or not as he wants $1000 :(


What does everyone think too much :?:

Might be worth that if they are new.
You can get them second hand from around half that.
$1000 is more of a 7.5" disc price.

If they are vented, and been rebuilt.. then I'd they might be worth about that

Oh, and twin piston calipers are the standard item, so probably solid discs.

The bigger the discs you can cram in your rims, the better.
7.5s let you keep the original 10" wheels.
