Voodoo Bizango replacement brakes - advice needed
chored
Posts: 20
Some lowlife scum has stolen the brakes from my Brother in-law's Voodoo Bizango (bike chained up in an underground carpark overnight and they've just unscrewed the grips and brakes and walked off with them).
Looking for some help on sourcing correct replacements as he's looking to ride the bike next weekend so I want to be sure I buy the right bits first time. I don't have access to the bike to check the exact details, so just going on specs/pictures from the internet.
I'm looking at a pair of Deore M615 brakes which I assume will be as good as the BR-395's they would be replacing? Also I'm not 100% sure on the brake mounts required as those were stolen as well. Looking at pictures of the bike online, looks like it's Post Mount on the Fork and IS on the frame and the M615s are Post Mount, so I think I need a front post to post adaptor and rear post to IS. Is that correct? Specs seem to suggest 180mm discs front and back.
Any help much appreciated.

M615s are the one usually, but these are supercheap at the moment
