When
fitting the OMM
carrier to the dropouts, beware of the size of the bottom mounting. The
ends are wide =strong, which means you might have to insert a small
washer
to ensure that the rackmount seats properly. |
 |
With
other types of
OMM carriers you remove the QR skewer and replace it with the included
XL one. Keep the conical springs with the old skewer, with the rack
they
serve no purpose and sometimes there isn't enough room for them between
axle and rack. Keep the external cam lubricated with some light
lubricant to reduce friction and increase the clamping pressure
|
 |
Bolt the 90-degree angle
(with the
longer M6 bolt) to the canti-stud. Allways use the original washer
(arrow),
and sometimes (eg with XT etc V-brakes with parallellogram) a second
washer
is required to ensure free movement of the brake. |
 |
Fit the long strips, they
might need
some gentle bending to line up properly. If you clamp them in a vise
handpressure
is usually sufficient.
If you find the protruding
end of
the strip very offensive you can shorten the strip at the other end
(marked
in red) and drill a new hiole. For this you'll need metalworking skills
and tools |

Magurabrackets
The OMM carriers are fitted
to the
cantileverstuds. This isn't possible if you use Magura rimbrakes with
the
QR mechanism. The solution is then to use our Magurabrackets, which are
clamped between brake and cantistud. Removal of the brake is then again
possible. On some frames you might have to file the bracket slightly
(arrow)
to be able to fit the brake low enough.
Note: These brackets will not
work
with Firmtech brakes, in which case you will have to resort to
tubeclamps.

For
large suspension forks with fat tubes we offer kit based on a modified
stainless steel hoseclamp. Not the cooles looking option, but it fits a
wide variety of diameters without pinching, not uncommon with designs
which use solid V-s to clamp a round object <O>
€10/set

For
seatstays and smaller forkblades we have a range stainless P-clips with
rubber padding. Size range from 1/2" to 1" (25mm).
Please mention the tubediameter when ordering, for nonround shapes
measure the circumference of the tube (where the cantipivots would be)
by wrapping a piece of paper round the tube.
