CBR6Fx wheels into NC29

Hi All,

Uprating the brakes on my NC29 using NC30 lowers & calipers but also want to use pfm discs (off 893), i've been on pfm website and discs H016's won't fit either NC29 or NC30 front wheel (pfm H037),

CBR600Fx front wheel which i believe uses 120/60 17 tyre ( same as NC29 ) will accept H016 discs - i've got a mate who has an Fx so i can get the measurement across the flange where the disc bolts to (which im sure is the only measurement which will effect the offset and effect whether or not the discs line up correctly with the calipers.

but,

FX wheels are 3 spoke so i'd like to use the rear as well, which would be good as it will let me use 160 profile rear tyre.

Has anyone fitted 1 of these to an NC29, I need info on spacers and whether the caliper bracket needs machining to get it to line up with the disc.

I checked out rear wheel on my cbr600fv and there was a fair difference between it and the NC wheel

All help gtratefully accepted

Hi drunkenmonkey

yeah code is H037, i'm going round the houses route as i've already got a set of H016's which i was hoping to use.

i'm thinking the NC29 would look good with 3 spoke wheels and it would let me fit 160 rear to a wheel that was designed for it, rather than squeeze it onto a standard rim which is suposed to have 150's fitted.

Hi all,

found out that cbr6Fx have 180 rears so far too wide !

Anyone know any three spoke wheels that would fit cbr400RRR ?

120/60/17 F
160/60/17 R

nc23 front, don't think there is a rear that is suitable?

HI Graham,

Der, stupid of me !!!!

Yeah should have realised, tbh I can't afford new dymags although they would b luvly, im guessing £1200 quids worth of luvlyness.

ebay, here i come.

taking the micky but do you know what the rear size would be - all the dymags appear to be measured in inches.

Standard rear is 17x4.5".

You will need to be cautious, as the width between disc and hub carrier is also important. Other things you can mostly tidy up with spacers, but that one measurement is important. You could maybe space sprockets and discs out, but not in!
