can you use the standard flangles of a 8.4 brake setup with the 7.9 minisport 4 pots calipers? also are the alloy flanges worth buying for the weight saving

I have normal flanges on my 7.9 vented set up the 7.9s are turned down 8.4s
All weight saving is worth it even more so if its rotating mass and even more so again if its unslrung weight
And flanges are all the above
So in short imo definately worth it but £ per kg would be a personal choice

Yes i moved to the darkside *happy*

Why do you want 7.9?

I seriously doubt it!
