Hi all,

With the new 20mm through axle wheel coming i may as well go to a 203 Front Rotor.
Can anyone advise if my current mount which is for a 185mm rotor will fit ?
Or will i need a different caliper mount ?
I currently have Custom Avid Ultimate 7 hydraulic disc brake with 185mm rotor.

Thanks

Paul

    YES you will need a new mount.

    which one is a very good guess and you have missed out half of the information.

    Thanks Nick :D

    My current Fox Float 32 is a post mount. Not sure what the revelations are but i think they are post mount ?

    Will find out tomorrow what forks are for def and then try to work out what mount i need to go to a larger 203mm disc.

    cheers

    Presuming current Post mount Revs, then you will need a 6" to 203mm Post to Post adaptor.
