DC brakes come with spindle hardware for a tubed mount but not all bikes are designed this way ie Mongoose, Quad etc.
I'm not asking how to but how do you do it?
Any close up photos of your set up would be greatly appreciated.

There is a little round flat end barrel peice, that is like the curved peice that just fits on in place instead, so that when on it sits flat on the brake bridge and the caliper
i'm sure some one might have one on here to send you - i will have a look in my stock to see as well mate

I've seen some different solutions to this like Spartacus' use of a Skyway fin - have you seen that?
I was just wondering really... but a couple of those flat end barrels would be sweet B, if you have them

I used the old skyway fin on my Slingshot also. You can always use washers, use 2 of the curved brake bridge hardware put together or even make a spacer to fit it.
