I seriously doubt it.


Thats FRP brakes behind 17 inch speedlines.

You might get away with 16" but youd need to try individual wheels etc.

thanks for the pic, is there any chance you could measure how big they are,ime using 15" oz gravel rims(like the cossie monte ones) so they have loads of room inside compared to normal 15" wheels

Speak Chris from Compotive wheels,he did some research into running FRP brakes behind 15" wheels. The Comp MO and TH3 in 15" will fit over the FRP brakes. I have just bought some TH 1570's they should fit over them with 7mm spacers.

Could you measure the clearence in your wheels please, what are the calapers like? Do they need much service work due to not having good seals?
