Thanks a lot bro!

What I was thinking of doing is cutting the frame end off of the Dio mounting bracket, and then welding the Spree mounting bracket onto that end... combining the two of them to make a hybrid one.

Do you think that's a good idea?

Also, I tried removing the Dio mounting bracket from the AF18 and it seems like it cant be removed. Do you know if it's possible, and if it, do you know how to do it?

Big thanks for all the help, its really appreciated!

"like we all said"? you didnt even post in my thread... MySpree was the only one to mention the mount removal and he wasn't even sure if they can normally be removed. *.

Sorry to hijack your thread diosoljah

hey diosoljah... what was involved in attaching those front discs to the Spree and what model scoot did you get them from?

I think i can get a Dio SR front end... is it possible to throw that badboy on and what would need to be modified if i did?

Do those discs run on hydraulic pressure or are they still cable driven?
