Would you run a disc on your Invaders?
First post!!
Hey everyone,
I'm building a lil ironhead and Ive got some 5 spoke invaders I want to use... I hadnt planned on a front brake but I did want something nice, like a disc in the back...
So my question is gents, will the wheel take the strain from a solid rotor and caliper?
Thanks

If the rear rim you have is setup with a flange on each side (one for a disc one for a sprocket) you don't really have a choice. It is fine. Unless of course the rim in question has been rotting away in someone's yard or something for 30 years or you have reasons to doubt the strength of the rim.
