  • Juicy 7 – going from a 160 rotor to a 185

    Can someone post a pic of the set up for a post mount to post mount adaptor taking a 160 rotor to a 185? Front end.

    Sure I’m missing a spacer somewhere as I can’t quite get it flush….

    Thanks

    It should look like this:

    Ok, yes, this is on the rear of a bike, but you can take my word for it that it’s the same as a front Avid 185 PM-to-PM setup, as I just took one off t’other bike last week. So, it should look like this, but 90-degrees clockwise…

    If you’ve left the cup-and-cone washers off or otherwise mixed them up, you won’t get the calliper to sit flush, because the mount isn’t actually machined parallel to the plane of the calliper. If you’re not using an Avid calliper, you’ll probably need to buy a different mount.
