I'm currently building up a winter/commuter and looking to run TRP Spyres.

I've seen a set of wheels that I'm about to buy, but they are centrelock. Will the rotors that come standard with Spyres work as centerlock?

*apologies if this is a stupid question, I'm a complete noob when it comes to discs.

    I don't know what comes as standard with the brake package but you can get adapters like;

    Yeah, I've seen those.

    Problem is, I've seen a wheel set on offer and having to buy the adaptors would mean spending what I'd save on those.

    Spyre discs are 6 bolt, just wondering if they come with the adaptors included?

    Mine are 6 bolt and didn't come with centrelock adaptors.

    Get some centrelock discs... TRP 6 bolts rotors are nothing special anyway, while you can have the awesome Shimano Freeza in centrelock

    Yeah, do as Ugo said. Spyre are never supplied with centre lock and, to be honest, good as the standard discs are you can get better.

    Cheers for the input.

    Seems like the wheels I had seen are now gone, or were a figment on my imagination.

    So much to think about for a disc noob, 140/160mm, 6 bolt/centrelock and then I'm not sure about what fitting for my frame...

    What frame do you have?

    London Road.

    There's the QR or thru axle decision to be made.

    As far as I'm aware the London Road frame and forks are built for conventional quick releases so no decision to be made, you're stuck with them.

    Yeah, that's right cheers. I haven't seen a thru axle yet so had assumed the fittings looked the same, hahaha.

    There's a pretty big thread on the London Roads in the Your Road Bikes section. Should be a fair bit of info in there as to how others have built them up.
