no mount needed but the a CPS washer are part of the caliper. there is also a good chance you will need shorter mounting bolts."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

so no mount at all ?
just strait onto the fork 0 -
yes that is why it is a 6" post mount."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

^^^^ wot they say; no mount but will need shorter bolts; you ca ncut the ones you have if you are sure you will never want to revert to 185 mm disc.0

going from a 6 bolt rotor to a 3 bolt and the largest disc for them is a 160 so i cannot go back to a 1850
