    any where.

    any 203 rotor and any suitable adaptor. Fork and brake fitting dependent.

    will the fork take a 203 disc?

    and why so big 185(5) is big enough for most bikes.

  • Coz I have one on the front of mine and you know what brothers are like !!!

    I didnt realise any rotor would fit I thought maybe the thickness of the disc might vary from different brands which could interfere with the pads, but if there all machined to an IS then that makes the job a lot easier thanks mate.
