Not sure what i,ve done wrong here but was converting from a 160mm to 180mm rear rotor and the rotor still catches the brake so i,m assuming i,ve got the incorrect post mount.
The one fitted is a uberbike Post to Post PM6/160mm Direct Mount to 180mm Disc Brake Adapter.
Any ideas which mount I should be using please or is there something else im missing ???

    Lol. 😝 Check out the other post on the other forum Buddy. It's the right one and an easy fix.

    I assume the other post on the other forum says to turn the adaptor round, because that's on backwards.

    Yes. Don't worry about it, easily done and a bit confusing when it comes to chainstay post mounts. 😎👍
