Disc Brake Converter 2.0: Trek 930 Goes Full Disc Brakes!

Converting the rear brake of my 1994 Trek 930 Singletrack from rim to disc brake.

The disc brake mount converts old bike frames to accept disc brake calipers.

Take out or loosen the bolts, remove the wheel.

Attach the mount to the frame (rear stays). Align the hole with the dropout and then tighten the bolts, the mount should sit flush on the frame. Once you have all the bolts tightened, check and make sure it’s sturdy before putting back the wheel.

The mount looks sturdy.

Put back the wheel with the disc rotor installed, insert the QR skewer into the hole and tighten it to secure the wheel in place.

Install the IS to Post adapter (160mm) and then the disc brake caliper.

Remove the old rim brake and replace the cable with a longer one.

Are disc brakes better than rim brakes? Leave me a comment below.
