Another brake question

Are the calipers off of a 160mm and a 185mm hydraulic brake set the same?
I was wondering if it was just the rotor size that differed..
Thanks.

As far as I know, the calipers are the same, regardless of rotor diameter. What will differ is the caliper mount, to position it correctly over a given rotor.Don\'t try to fix me, I\'m not broken.

What are the brakes?"Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Fit the Clarks brakes with the original BB5 mounts, but lose the "tri align" washers.
