Mechanical disk brakes.

I have been thinking about buying some second hand mechanical disk brakes for the DMR for quite a while and have been keeping a casual eye on a couple of forums and the trademe web site.

Finally someone on Vorb posted their old Shimano mech. disks for sale and I leapt in and accepted his price of $50. To make this the coolest thing the seller said he would gift them to me for all the work I have been doing track building.

In return I gave the $50 to Vorb and became a foundation member.

We were all winners.

Here are the brakes, I went to put them on the DMR today but the outer cable I had lying around was too short, will get some fresh cable tomorrow and have a crack tomorrow night.
