For all the xtracycle owners out there. I just put on a rear disk brake, I got an Avid BB7. Be warned, the rear says to use 203 mm rotors, however, when buyng a set, the attachment bracket is set to far, thus you need to buy a new, shorted bracket. I'm sure I would have known this had I read any xtracycle forums, but I don't. Hope I saved you all some trouble in the future.

Definitely something I hadn't heard of before, but I'm glad we were able to work that out for you. For others interested a brief blurb from the guys at xtracycle is here: http://xtracycle.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=560
