Am I missing something with this?? There's three different mounting holes (Commencal Supreme DH '10), all of which seem to line the caliper up with no trouble. So does anyone know what's the deal with having the three options? I've switched between the highest and lowest and didn't really notice any difference, and it's wet out so I'm not up for playing just now

Cheers,
Mark

I haven't seen the biks, but doesn't it have adjustable chainstays?

The different holes are for different chainstay lengths perhaps?

its to change the braking characteristics of the bike

that's kinda what I figured, but from what to what? I've never seen any details about it. I thought it lost traction a lot easier when the mount was in its lowest position (hole 1?) but wasn't sure if it was just in my head plus the damper conditions than the day before

they're just spares for when the other two crack

It supposedly changes the behavior of the bike under braking. The brake mounts are Numbered. The first one is supposedly makes the bike compress frontward under braking, The second one is neutral, and the last mount makes the rear end of the bike compress.

I've had my Supreme DH for 1.5 years. I've changed the head angle and chain stay around a bunch. I've never messed with the brake position. I know several guys with the bike and none of them have changed it either.
