I`m a total noob when it comes to disc brakes but i`m thinking of changing to these http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=67766 so the question is will they it this bike http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=65167, will I need new rotors and if so do they come with the new brakes and are the hoses attached so no need to faff around with bleeding etc. Help!!!

They come with all you need. However the front comes with a IS mount adaptor. Your fork needs a PM mount adaptor. Though you can use the existing mount/rotor size.
Why do you want to change?0 -
Looking to get my reverb remote in a better position, now you have confused me with PM mount adaptorCervelo S5 Team 2012

I doubt your reverb remote is mounted on the bottom of your forks.I don't do smileys.

IS and Post are different ways of mounting brake calipers.I don't do smileys.

On a similar note is it worthwhile going for a bigger rotor say 200mm on the front and 180mm on the rear or would that not work.Cervelo S5 Team 2012

Yes, no, maybe.
New brakes just to move a remote seems rather drastic. As for the rest do you need more power and whether they will fit (probably) depends on the frame.I don't do smileys.
