I’ve got the 4 pieces in.  I guess I need to offer them up first come – first served.  Price on the picture includes shipping.  I prefer PayPal for payment.  Message me either directly or in this forum post with your color/material choice.

I will take a nickel plated. DM me. 

[Tailendcharlie]

I’ll take the other nickel plated. Cheers, Rob.

I guess that leave the gold one then?  I’ll grab it just in case!
Thanks,
Steve

OK.  I’ve got 3 requests for the Nickel Plated.  So….would any of the Nickel Plated prefer the SS for $60?  The Nickle plated weigh 41 grams and the SS weighs 37 grams.

RHoss – SS – Paid – Shipped

BLKHG2019 – NP – Paid – Shipped

Tailendcharlie – NP – Paid – Shipped

I only have the Gold plated (fake) remaining.  Any takers?

[livernose]

I’ll take it if you still have it. Let me know where to send the payment. Paypal ok?

 

[bikeric]

PayPal works.  I’ll DM you the address.

All pieces spoken for.  I am getting a new batch of adapters made and will update when they are available.  Not doing gold this time.

Hello everyone. New to the group. I’ve got a 2000 Schwinn Homegrown Pro that I am working on upgrading.  I would like to purchase one of the adapters once you have them again, if possible. Also, had a question about brake compatability.Looks like you used a Shimano road disc brake. Does anyone know if these are compatible with Shimano MTB brakes or Sram?  

[bikeric]

These adapters were designed for use with the Shimano Road disc caliper.  The Shimano road caliper is compatible with the shimano mountain levers.  I have not test fit SRAM or any other brand of Flat Road calipers simply because I’m partial to Shimano equipment and prefer mineral oil to industrial brake fluid.

[walktheline]

I can attest the fact that flat mount will work with Shimano.  It’s easy enough to run a hose to a mtn master cylinder, vs a road.  The stoke should be the same and same amount of fluid push thru.  
 

I tried a TRP cable actuated flat caliper and it just didn’t give me enough braking stoppage.  So opting for the shimano road stuff instead.

Thanks for the info! Would love to purchase an adapter once the new batch is ready.
