@all
newbie here, sir after converting to a RD, is it possible to convert it back to drum brake! thanks! ride safe!

depends on the kind of conversion done on your rear disc brake.
if you have shaved the inner part of your hub or rear wheel, you can no longer use it to revert back to drum brake. you will have to replace the hub/wheel.
this is because the brake panel will no longer fit snugly into the wheel if the wheel has been shaved.
but if you have used a fabricated plunge without shaving the wheel, then there shouldn't be any problem going back to drum brake.

yung sa sniper ko gumamit ako ng HDIII hub kasi alloy ito at magaang. mas mabigat kasi yung fabricated plunge na ginagawa sa machine shop. isa pa, ayoko ng may mga welded parts sa conversion.
kaya nga lang, hindi na maibabalik sa drum brake unless palitan ko ang mags ko

@attiado - same here bro....my snipy is already converted into rear disk, just today..... I just notice that it was not properly aligned, i don't know, if it is the caliper or the rotor disk.... just like ocho...ocho.... hayzzz... big disappointment for me... b'coz, i thought the shop that was recommended to me is 100% guaranteed.. "kilala pa naman ung shop na un sa may cubao "new york st." Sana naman pag balik ko sa this coming monday, eh magawan ng paraan..... maganda naman usapan namin before sa FB eh... sabi nga 3.5k daw all na un package eh... pero 4.5k umabot.... big money... for me!!! "MAS MALAKAS PA UNG DRUM BREAK"

sana mairaise tong concern ko...... thanks god bless!!!!

paps sa mga master jan, bumili ako ng mags rb 522, and rear convertion kit, problema yung caliper bumabanga sa mags kc fabricated lng yung hub na ginamit maxado lapat sa mags yung hub. ano pwedeng hub na mag fifit sa rb mags na medyo nka usli ung disc? hd3 ba?

yung dulo ba ng caliper tumatama bawasan mo na lang yun dulo tapos lagay ka ng washer na sakto lang yung butas sa turnilyuhan ng rotor, stainless na washer gamitin mo tapos lihahin mo muna yun washer para magparepareho ang kapal.. yung hub mo ba ay diresto ang turnilyo ng rotor sa mags...
 
yung hub na nabili ko flat maxado design sa stock mags. nag rb mags na kc ako kaya dko na pwd gamitin yung dating hub kc dapat yung usli ng konte yung paglalagyan ng disc para d tumama yung caliper sa mags. prob ko lng kung anong hub ang bibilhin
