Looking for a safer way to stop. I have a Micargi 26" cruiser, what kind of disc brakes can I put on my bike, or even regular style brakes for the rear?
 
I have the same problem, want to install at least a front disc. I know it will require changing the front hub to one that will accept a disc, I'm searching the web everyday.
 
There's a website, something like chain gang lowriders, they sell a little bracket that bolts onto your front fork allowing you to mount a disc caliper on there. Then you just need a front rim made for a 160mm disc. I'm getting one, I'll try to remember the website and let you know.
 
Hey thanks Thatperson for the link, they have a bracket that might work, plus lots of cool parts on that web site.
 
I guess. When I Googled "beach cruiser with disc brakes" the first hit was this thread.
Same here a couple years later.
If your macarigi is a Pantera you can put on a front shock fork with disc bosses and get a new front wheel.
