I'm trying to order a set of 'Hope Mini Floating disc 2007' brakes from wiggle. However I have no idea which mount I need.
I have A 2008 Float fork and the frame is a 2006 Lightspeed Pisgah [size 18] (links below).

Any idea which option i should select on wiggle? I want a 183 on the front and a 160 on the back

Thanks

If both mounts are IS, which I assume they are, then just buy the IS brakes of the right size.

International Standard. This shows the differences:

IS is far more common.

I thought i replied to this, the 2008 foxes are PM (post mount) according to the fox website
so you'll need 6" post (mount h) for the front and rear 160mm IS for the back, mount h

I thought Hope had switched all their brakes to post mount anyway? If I'm right, which I'm probably not, you just buy a pair of 160mm brakes and in the case of the front throw away the adapter if your fork is post mount or keep it if it's IS.
