  1. Probably a dumbass question ๐Ÿ™‚ I have a Marin Mount Vision ( I bought the frame set only in '96 (I
    think) ) Obviously it has no rear disc brake mounts. Is their anyway to get any? I have a hope disc
    on the front which is v cool! (Marzocchi Bombers) Cheers to anyone with ideas Glyn

    Bear in mind that something like this will only be a compromise and will invalidate your
    frame warranty.

    Interesting they put a Specialized FSR in their example, if he had a Specialized he could just buy
    the Specialized disc brake adapter for $40. I don't know what the 96 mount vision frame looks like,
    you may be able to adapt it.

    The conversions are expensive, relatively, and can dork up your frame. Stick with disk in the front,
    Vs in the back. I do it on mine, works great, no hassles. Several others in this ng do too - and are
    happy with the set up.

    Good luck,
