So I have a floating brake on my Rotec. It came with a Ringle Lawwill hub which is basically a 150mm shelled hub with the rotor side spacer removed which in actuality makes it 135mm wide. There is a 2.5mm brass spacer and then the 12.5mm wide Floater setup.
I'd prefer not to use the heavy 36h Ringle and instead use a 150mm DT 340 I have. I've downloaded the 340 Data sheet and I'm thinking that I should be able to easily mill the rotor end of the axle down 12.5mm as well as the bearing spacer and seal.
My other question concerns my Rotec frame. I picked up a new Rotec frame under the impression that it was an 07, but it is in fact an 06 (at least I believe it is since it is the 06 team orange color and because there is that small welded tube at the top link that I don't believe is on the 07 and definately not the 08 model. What are my shock options? I can get pretty much any shock for a decent price. I have seen Roco's and 5th's/Swingers used on the 06. I'd be fine running a Roco, but prefer to have more options. Will a Vivid or anything else fit?
