I know this is an old post, but has anyone else tried the Storm disk conversion kit? If so, how is it and do the brake pads have to be replaced frequently? Where would you buy the brake pads?

I have the Storm kit on my 50, works incredible.



As for replacement pads, go here http://www.universalcycles.com/shopping/product_details.php?id=670&category= and get the Sintered pads, there much tougher than the pads that come stock and last longer.

im rockin a storm set up love it. cant bet for the price. better than drum.



drum brake--> cable disc-->hydro disk



tried red baron disk on factory fork setup. works great but mounting hub for rotor floats. they said it will do that.

Do you guys think it will perform well on the bigger 14" front of a KLX though? I'm curious if the caliper and disk are bigger on the KLX storm kit then the crf50? It should be, it is $30 more. Where is a good place to pick up the storm kit?

faster minis is a great place to pick it up. i got in a couple of days. takes about 1 hour to install if you never installed one before.

So all of you guys run them on crf50's right? Storm cycles told me that it is the same caliper and rotor for the klx110 as the crf50. So sorry to be repetitive, but do you think it will work as well for the bigger klx front wheel as it does for the smaller crf? Thanks Again

I have heard a lot of good things about the Storm setup. They definitely have one for the 110.
