Hi Guys,
I have got a set of Shimano SLX disc brakes.
I have got a frame with an IS disc brake mount.
I guess you know what question comes next: what adaptor should I use?
Cheers

From the drop down. PM to IS R+ whatever size your rotor is. (Presuming you're talking about the rear.)I don't do smileys.

Loads out there. If the brake does not actually come with one.kingie3105 wrote:Could you please post a link, cooldad? I can't seem to find any...
But you also need to know what size discs you are using as that has a small effect on the adaptor needed.
Look on CRC or superstar or whoever your favourite web seller is."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Or if you want Shimano, which at the price I would, again rear post to IS, whatever rotor size.

Next question is how do I mount it? Because the mounts on my frame aren't threaded...0 -

So the screw goes into the frame through the hole and into the thread in the adaptor?0

it depends on the fork. normal are 6" post mounts.
