Thread: Question: Turner XCE

Many thanks for the comments. Have to agree, not worth the effort to change.

i wouldn't bother. its likely not worth the time and energy. if i were you i'd just sell the individuals parts (disc wheels, disc brakes, etc) and inform potential buyers of the complete bike that there is a disc conversion adapter available and let them make the call. some people like v-brakes and others already have disc wheels. of course, this only makes sense if you don't want/need to keep parts off the XCE.

My XCE has ISC tabs but bolt on canti posts are an option; which do you need?

Boz - I've converted an XCE from canti brakes to disc. This required a replacement of the seatstay to one that had ICSG tabs on which to mount the disc adapter. Turner no longer has Horst link seatstays so this conversion will require the replacement of the entire rear triangle. In my view, not worth the effort to make a sale.

If you really wanted to put a rear disk on the XCE, could you find a Burner SS and swap it? That might open up your options too.
