Anyone have a Disc Drive sprocket adapter?

[Spare_Parts]

Looks like a lot more offset on the MBRebel one, should be good for a 135mm OLD!
Though why they think we need nine 10mm bolts is a mystery to me.

They have 3 offsets too.

I just like the look of the 9 hole better.

Lynn gave me a wheel with a freewheel hub. It was a return from someone who had seized a bolt on disk brake side.
I was going to mount a drive sprocket to it so I drilled out the broken screw and the other 8 5X.8mm holes and tapped 1/4-28.
And then just hung it up on the ceiling rafter. The metal a disk brake is screwed to is only about 3mm thick.
Not what I would mount a drive sprocket to.

Adapter came in today.

Large flange with 9 holes is 1/8" thick and 6 hole flange is 1/4" thick.

From all I have seen in this thread. my only misgiving is the drive sprocket using 410 chain.
I will expect KCvale to bust my chops for that opinion. I watched Lynn's youtubes.
Guess I will have to pay her a visit and get the full scoop. As I posted earlier,
Lynn gave me a wheel with a freewheel disk brake hub.
Seeing the setup explains why Lynn had me modify about sixty steel drive sprockets.

Noob question. I also purchased the adapter from MBRebel and I'm currently having clearance issues preventing me from using my back disc brakes. Would a different offset fix my current problem?

I'm using a KMC 510 chain that has the same dimensions as a 410 with thicker plates. Used 410 on the last bike and never had a problem. Haven't measured my hubs disk flange but it is at least 1/4". The hub is a no name from Amazon.

The only concern I have is how long the sprocket will last. May get a blank steel sprocket and throw it in the drill press.

If your chain lines up than no. What is the problem exactly? If the caliper is hitting the sprocket or chain you will need a 203mm rotor and the proper caliper adapter.

Yes the caliper is hitting the chain. At the moment I have the rear brakes set up as rim brakes but I prefer the disc brakes so I'll have to go with the 203 mm rotor you suggest. My concern was the caliper adapter holding up under preasure, have you ever heard of this being an issue??

As long as it's a brand name adapter you should be fine. Lots of bikes come with a 160 or 180 rotor and plenty of people go to a larger rotor.

Lynn has steel sprockets. Read above.
