7.25" will work on a worksman newsboy. What kind of breake you using?The disk setup on those works great with just the plates you can buy ,if you putting a drum on you'll need to add a post an reconfigure the hardware to clear it ,not much travel but dam they look great! Later Bob

i havent decided on a brake yet. i had a strumery archer 70mm with a light generator but its gone now.


whats a good disc brake setup that doesnt cost too much? i have a worksman newsboy and it only has the rear pedal brake. i like the disc or drum because they look better than the rim squeezing ones.

also how would i mount the disc to the front wheel?

and i agree they look great.

thanks for reply

No that's a Worksman drum brake on there wheel . Got it from worksman . You can see the pin I put in the forks . Dan
how much was the drum brake from worksman? or did you have to buy entire wheel combo?

i was searching the worksman site and i couldnt find the drum brakes.
