Well, I found that this tech website has loads of information regarding disc sizes and compatibility.

That adapter is for a post mount caliper to go on IS forks! You need an adapter for post mount caliper to post mount forks!
This is what you need.

No, read the description its a post to post mount that extends the 6" (160mm) post mount on the fork to take a 7" (180mm)rotor for a caliper with post mount.

I have an IS mounted brake caliper, but will have Post mount forks, so a Post to IS Mount is fine isn't it?

mongooseTE17 · June 2007

Why didnt you say the caliper was an IS mount. You said your old forks were IS but I assumed the caliper was post mount as most are these days. Sorry for the confusion. What brake is it?

My Elite!

newmember · June 2007

oh i see, now i understand, its a Hayes Sole, although i also have an old diatech Anchor caliper if anyone happens to have the lever and hose.....

mongooseTE17 · June 2007

Hayes sole so its a post mount caliper with an adapter like the one you linked to but for 160mm, so you need to take that adapter off and buy the adapter that i linked to.

My Elite!

newmember · June 2007

no, mines a fairly old one 05 i think, so its an IS one.

newmember · June 2007

thats the description of the item.
It doesn't say anything about mounting an IS brake onto a Post mount fork, which is what you said you had.
