    What size disc were you running when on the is mount? Adapters add 20mm usually ie if the caliper is designed for a 160 disc with an adapter it will need a 180. Same goes for 180 to 200 etc.

    bearing this in mind you need this adaptor (or an equivalent one from another manufacturer if you want a black one)

    hey guys cheers for replies. the caliper is number 3. I was running a 160mm rotor. But have changed forks, and now i want to run a 180mm rotor
