2011 120mm Reba RL post-mount...

felix.london

Look what turned up today....




Now I'm presuming the post-mount is to fit a 160mm rotor?

So if I want to fit a 180mm rotor I'll need something like this...?

Just a double check before I order...Thanks

what brakes do you have. It's the mount on them which determines it. You need PM-(your brake type)PM/IS 180

My brakes are Shimano Deore M525 and they are post mount too.

Slow Loris

You need the Shimano F180P/P or Shimano F180P/P2 adapter. The P2 is newer and lighter due to a better shape, and is the one I went for (I bought both to try to fit my M665s to new Recons cos I couldn't find anyone to tell me what the difference was)

I got them both from Halfords of all places, as no-one else seemed to stock the P2!

Think I'll take a punt on the XTR adapter and hope it fits - CRC free delivery to France and all that!

Thanks for your help

They look good Felix!

yeah baby!

Very excited to get them on - was gonna wait for this brake adapter to turn up so I can install the bigger rotor at the same time but don't think I'll be able to...might have to put them on tomorrow and take em for a spin!

Silly question - is there any benefit of installing a new headset to go with these shiny new babies? I've also gotta new (shorter) stem on the way from CRC - whole new head end?

My current headset seems fine

No need, what size stem you got coming? wider bars as well?

felix.london

Didn't think so. Gotta 90mm / 6° coming

..to replace my current 105mm / 17°

£11 and will match my EA50 Monkey Bars.

With the bar ends I'm at 720mm wide now and it's already pretty tight on some of the single track I ride
