Rose Petal Wheels And Kad 7.9" Calipers?

Best Answer AndyR , 18 March 2016 - 09:25 PM

I have the 7.75 disc setup on rosepetals and they will only fit with the spacers - and is still quite tight.  I would imagine you could get them to fit with the right spacer if they are definitely what you want and they dont fit with the supplied spacers.  However, i doubt you will feel the difference between the 7.75 and 7.9 setup unless you are on the edge under race conditions.

Forgive me if this has already been answered before but my search on the forum (and the Internet in general) turned up nothing. I asked KAD directly and they were not completely certain either.

 

So my question is this: will the 10x4.75" Rose petal wheels (as sold by MiniSpares and Swiftune) fit KAD's 7.9" 4-pot front brake calipers? Does anyone know for certain?

 

Thank you!

That is exactly what I needed to know. I appreciate you sharing that.
