Replacement brake rotor

I currently have these fitted front and rear.

Am upgrading to a 180mm rotor on the front, and just wanted to check with you lovely people that the following is a correct replacement?
http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/shim ... prod119966
And all I need to do is remove the calliper and disk, refit disk and add the extended post mount? I'm also aware there's a certain order the bolts should be done on the new disk too. I don't have a torque wrench, but I've read a lot of people say it's not really needed?
Thanks, all.
EDIT: And these are my callipers. M395.

Yes both rotors are six bolt, so as long as you have the correct adaptor for the larger size you will be fine.
I typically tighten the bolts in diagonal pairs, but have never used a torque wrench
Bolts normally have a bit of threadlock already on them, but if not, just apply to each bolt0 -

Thanks very much. There's no calliper compatibility to think about?Daddy, Husband, Designer, Biker, Gamer, Geek
