fox f80 hope mini

Hi,

Quick techie Q. Fox F80 with a hope mini standard IS mount 203 rotor. The adaptor is hitting the rotor. Any ideas? TO me it sounds like the rotor is on the wrong way round??

thanks in advance.

1) Why do you need 203mm rotors on a XC fork?

2) correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't Fox F series forks only supposed to run a 180mm rotor max?

3) Rotors are only run in one direction, as marked on the rotor.

4) Are you sure you have assembled everything correctly?

5) Pics would help.

Hi,

Sorry no pics. I've sold this to someone on ebay. They say the adaptor is hitting the rotor. If 203's don't fit on f80's that would explain it I guess. Unless the IS mount is not the right one either. It's that or get the thing returned and I put it up for resale.

Ta.

There's no mention of using 203s with the MINI on the hope site at all. That might explain it.

which Hope Mini?

the original? the mono IS moubt or the current post mount with adaptor?

which adaptor? what fork did YOU run it on?

Hi - Its the mini mono 2007 with the IS adaptor for 183or203 rotors.

I was running on some Revelations.

I think it's to do with the 203s not being compatible with the Mini Mono.??

more likely to be the users wheel.

the fact that you should not be using a 203mm disc on a fox F80 is not relevant as by the sounds of it any adaptor will be causing problems.

the reason i asked is that thereis the 20mm IS adaptor that is 5mm thicker than the IS one. But as you were using it on a revalation it should be fine.

Yeah he said he was using Chris King hubs though didn't say what type.
