Coaster Brake Mag Wheels??

[DAMIEN1307]

View attachment 100268This is how I have mine set up and honestly the pad is wearing nicely and only a little paint seems to have come off.

WARNING: MAG WHEELS ARE NOT DESIGNED TO BE COMPATIBLE WITH CALIPER BRAKES. USE OF CALIPER BRAKES THAT STOP, USING FRICTION PLACED ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE RIM EDGE, MAY RESULT IN PREMATURE FAILURE OF THE RIM.

This is EXACTLY why bikeberry was forced to give this warning...THIS IS UNSAFE and WILL eventually FAIL, possibly causing you injury or worse as well as bike damage...DAMIEN

Suggestions for modification?

I would think it would mean rear disc brakes. That’s what I’m in process of doing. I think your mags you can buy a spacer adaptor for the rotor but not for sure.

Ya, there's a spacer for the disc to offset it from the drive gear, plus an adapter for the caliper to frame connection.

I will look into it, honestly it is what I wanted from the start.

If you have a steel frame, you'll be fine.
