Well you see I have a RM Vertex 30 that came with Alex Ace 19/Shimano M520 wheels, and Shimano M475 Disc brakes. However, sitting around I have WTB Speed XC Hubs, WTB LaserBeam 22 Rims and Avid Single Digit 7 brakes.

So my brain fart was to sell the wheels and brakes off the Vertex and upgrade to the SD 7's and the Laserbeams; logical correct?. So I sold the disc stuff...

The Vertex frame doesn't have the cantilever posts nor places to put them!!!
So my go fast bike has no way of stopping!

Any suggestions??? Please.

There is only one:

Get new disc wheels and brakes.

Look at it this way, you have a faster bike for downhills

only spend money

on upgrades that make you faster.
Brakes only slow you down.

...and send the SD 7's to me!

pffft.... brakes. Next thing you will be asking for is a seat. Sheesh.

I knew it all along Shig - Instead of buying new wheels and brakes I should see if someone is selling an ass kicking on Ebay...that's what I deserve.

I knew a guy back in school many years ago that used to ride without a seat...seriously. He had massive quads and said he didn't need it. He did a lot of trials riding too. Damn, I had forgotten about that.

Sell more stuff

Option 2: Get a new frame.

Remember not to sell anything until you've ridden your current setup.

Speaking of seats, in Spain there is a trail competition on bikes without a seat and seatpost.
