Yuba Mundo V3 Upgrades


It's been a while since I posted about the Mundo. It has been pretty cool for toting around 70ish pounds of kids. After some riding, I decided to invest in a few upgrades. I put on a deflopilator, a double-legged kickstand, a front rack (just because it was laying around), and figured out the 185mm rear disc brake. The 185mm disc brake requires a 203mm adapter to clear the rack frame member. Seems to work fine with that setup (at least on the stand, I haven't taken a real ride yet).

Which model kickstand is that? Did you look into the Hebie Bipod or the kickstand Yuba sells?

I bought a sunlite from amazon. Hebie and yuba were more expensive.

Gday Baker,

I've tried that 203mm adapter with the 185mm disc and it doesn't work for me. The pads do grip the rotor but only just the edge of it. Ben at Yuba assures me he has a custom made Yuba adapter to make it work. We'll see.

Ugh....I suppose I need to take a closer look at my rear brake and see what kind of contact I'm actually getting. It is functional, but I bet if you have that situation, I do to.

Thanks for the heads up!

nice looking ride. What kind of handle bars?

Nitto Albatross. They're good for this upright cruising application.
