    Where can I get an IS to IS 180 rear disc mount for Magura marta?

    Do you mean a plus 20 mount? an IS caliper does not require a mount on an IS frame unless you want to increase the rotor size and still use the same caliper – the caliper defines the rotor size

    Sorry when I say mount I mean adapter for a 180 disc. That's why I was saying IS to IS, I do know that IS callipers come in 160 standard. Sorry for the confusion.

    IS calipers come in a varienty of sizes – depending on the disc size. (140mm – 200 mm) If you have an IS caliper with a 160 disc and you want to go to a 180 disc you need an is / is plus 20 adaptor – or the correct calliper for a 180 mm disc.

    Cheers for the link! I was looking for the marta size 16 rear adapter to no avail, there apparently hard to come by reading the Magura forum. I take it this just works the same. I thought all IS callipers were standard 160 mounts and just used adapters, never seen any others, not to say they don't exist.

    This is the Magura version though the Hope version TJ linked to above will do just as well…

    Chain Reaction also do a Shimano Version too, which is £1.50 cheaper, but is currently out of stock…

    Each will work exactly as required…

    I looked chainreaction site and didn't see them! Need my eyes checked I think. Cheers for the links. Out of curiosity what brakes are they TJ? I have only ever used Hayes and Shimano and have been biking 18 years now but cant recall all the mount types, I did have one old set of hope 2 pots on my Orange MR O years ago that may have had them.
