I also ask the same! Nobody?


They're made for the Emonda, but I don't see why they wouldn't fit another direct-mount compatible frame if there's no interference. I know they don't fit on my Madone 5, because of the way the fork and headset meet.

sorry for resurrect a year old thread, but is it likely to fit under the bb for frame with direct mount brake under bb?
I see that Emonda mount rear brake on the seat stay so i think i should ask before pulling the trigger.

I really have no idea. I went with the DA9000 brakes and haven't looked back.

They have been using Shimano DA brakes all season long in 2016. So have Movistar in the years before Campagnolo brought a DM brake of their own for 2016.
