Swivel Pin Housing

Eeyore:
You also get the advantage of the 110 calipers doing that. I would recommend fititng the 110 rears to as soo as funds permit, it'll keep the braking balance between the two ends.  :wink: A popular conversion with the racing fraternity.?

As far as I'm aware the swivel pins are similar between Disoc and 110 (but I'm happy to be proved wrong by someone with access to Microcat, etc). The difference is in the age of the axle. The later types run with roller bearings, the earlier type run with a solid Railko bushing. The needle type are easier to replace. I certainly have Dicso balls on my 110 (the racer has them too, IIRC). Later Disco balls run with the black teflon coating whixch is alledged to be tougher than the original chrome finish.

Anyhoo, you see what I mean about repair with new or replace with second hand!  :wink:

Cheers
