Hey! I'm new here 
I've just put a set of 2011 Rockshox Reba RL on my 06 claud butler cape wrath and the hayes sole front caliper won't fasten onto the post mounts on the fork. It fouls on the rotor, even though on the rockshox website it says the max rotor diameter is 210mm, when my rotor is 180mm.
The old fork was rockshox judy j2 which was IS mount with a post mount adaptor on from new.
Is there an adaptor i need to use on the new fork?
Can anyone offer advice please?

Yes, you need a PM to PM adaptor 160 to 180mm.0

And these ones are pretty reasonable price wise:

Thanks for the quick answers!
I've been looking at the adaptors available and there seems to be a number of different shaped adaptors which are supposed to be PM to PM 180.
So from the different shaped adaptors i've seen and the following pic i took of the caliper in situ do you think there is a particular adaptor which would be an ideal fit?

Yep - the type 7 on the link I posted - post mount to post mount for a 180 disc. I've got one on my Sektor with an SLX calliper and 180 disc... Fits a treat0
