TRP Spyke Brakes Question

Post by The Cumbrian »

If any of you have bought some TRP Spykes, what comes in the box with the calipers? Do you get adaptors too, or are they aftermarket?

If anyone knows where they're in stock that would be useful too, there don't appear to be many left.

Cheers, Michael.

This does not really answer your question as I bought some 'nearly new' ones.
These had been fitted but found wanting.
They came with the original packaging which did not include any spacer.
When fitted onto a Reba fork with a 160mm disc the caliper hit the spokes so had to buy a spacer and 180mm disc.
They are quite bulky compared to BB7 calipers.

Haven't seen any for sale for some time. I think I got mine off CTC forum.
