April 16, 201214 yr anyone done or heard of this conversion? it looks pretty close to me and would give you a rear disk and tubeless rim if you use the tyz wheel (which for me would be the point of the conversion) thanks Ben
April 16, 201214 yr Author WHAT ABOUT THE BACK END FROM A SCORPA SY?? thats a possibility i suppose, but obviously a fair old job as you'd have to make a mount for the scorpa shock that runs without a linkage. i could make the mount but i would imagine the scorpa shock, swing arm wheel and brake set up to be out of my price range at the moment
April 17, 201214 yr Personally I'd keep the stock swingarm and suspension but fit the TYZ wheel and fabricate some form of mount for the disc caliper. Can't be all that hard... I've been talking about doing it for years along with the front wheel/front disc from a TYZ.
April 17, 201214 yr There is a lad in the north west that has dun this to his ty and he has used the damper as well. It looks bang on and rides well!
April 17, 201214 yr I have it done to mine, I bought an old ty swinging arm off of ebay and wleded a bracket onto it. I also had to weld brackets onto the frame to mount the rear master cylinder. Basically I done it to save the hassle of cleaning out a brake drum.

April 17, 201214 yr Author what happened to the reply from the fella who had a tyz back end he wanted rid of?
April 17, 201214 yr You need to speak to Pete at Promonty porourke100@btinternet.com (i think) He has done loads of front and rear end conversion on the TY Mono

April 17, 201214 yr what happened to the reply from the fella who had a tyz back end he wanted rid of? My post got removed, i must have broken the rules.
April 19, 201214 yr There was a part converted one (project) at Telford, I think the back end was fitted, it was for sale in the hall.
