That's a great (small) weight. Lighter than the TD PR 1.2 in the same dimensions, how much room is there for bigger brakes behind the spokes?

Nikiforos · December 31, 2011, 06:16:17 PM

Because of the spoke's design,there is plenty of room for big calipers.
I will take a close photo, so you can see the gap to my R32 brakes.
Its definitily more space than TD's.
Happy new year mates
