I'm running a disc rear brake on my 4-speed rigid Shovel project.
I recently was told that running a bolt through the caliper and using it as a stay won't work under braking--the bolt will bend. I was told I'll need to weld a tab on the frame to hold the caliper in place.
Have any of you done this? Can you post up pics of how you did it?
I have the caliper mounted and the wheel centered/chain aligned. Fitment isn't a problem. Securing the caliper against rotation forces is what I'm facing.
