    Forks are now kaput. Looking for a 100mm Reba or similar for a SC Heckler Superlight. I have an old Hope C2 brake and so need an IS mount.

    Am looking 2nd hand.

    200mm 1 1/8″ steerer.

    Do they exist?

    can’t you get an adapter and larger rotor?

    Most decent new forks will be post mount now, you might find some new but old stock forks with IS mounts if you hunt hard enough…

    If you are looking 2nd hand then there should be loads of old RockShox, Fox and Marz forks out there with IS mounts, just make sure to get something that has been looked after and is in good condition.

    However, you can get a < £10 adaptor to fit your C2 to a post mount fork so probably not worth fussing over too much? although you may have to go up a rotor size but they’re not expensive either.

    You can get adaptors for you brake such as this:

    HBSM20H – this mount allows international standard calipers to fit onto 74mm post mount forks, but it also requires a 20mm larger disc.

    KCNC/Clee cycles do a post to IS caliper adaptor for 160mm discs, just fitted one onto my 2012 Revelation with XTR caliper, it didneed a little fileing to fit but works fine. 😀
