Is it not the same thing as the new Mini or Beetle ? New car loosely based on the original concept, you wouldn't have a new Mini with drum brakes or a Beetle with 6v electrics just because it was right back then. Again it comes down to if you like it buy it and I'm sure if 1000 are made 1000 will be sold.

Yeah and why is it flocked? Super gay!  ;D


Christ it is a early picture, they only one I could find.  They have also produced them in polished alloy.
Yes i remember that guy on the museum that did a modern day redline and had them machined, They looked the nuts.

Those brake's are the nut's!!  A modern take on an 80's classic design(we'ther they worked or not), they look far better than those cack repop's that Dia Compe have released :uglystupid2: :2gunsfiring_v1:

Buz ;)

Biggest problem is those MX1000 v-brakes will never be produced.  JDB (John De Bruin) bought the rights to them and said that he will not ever get them made.

Why don't some one just rip 'em off? Bloody shame not to produce them.

I thought they were just a one off by some guy that had engineering skills for his own bike or am i thinking of something else i have seen?

If the JDB story is right then what's the points in that, surely it's the guys own design as no one has the rights to two letters do they?
Dia compe didn't back in the day. Every man and his dog were making callipers with mx stamped on them.

Just googled them and got this thread on vintage.
http://www.vintagebmx.com/community/index.php'showtopic=27059956
Don't know if there is any more in depth info somewhere but this just looks like the guy that did the cad drawing handed it to JDB and he then he decided not to go with them.
Couldn't someone else just do the same ?
It would be nice to see them on a few bikes if they work as they look a vast improvement on a lot of the standard v brakes. :coolsmiley:

I dont see a radical new design at all, Its just a variation of Cane creeks direct curve, which has been around for a long time, just buy one of these and polish it

nice!  :coolsmiley:  but surely you'd rather spend £150 on an old caliper that doesn't stop you for toffee?  ???
