I have a pair pof Manitou forks with post mounts, an IS caliper and a 160mm rotor.....
....is it possible to fit an adaptor that will make this lot work together???
Any help greatly appreciated

yes - you need to find a same brand as your [b]caliper[/b] mount IS to Post mount. v What brand is the caliper
I thought you would need to go to 180 but.... http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=13743
You don't say what brakes so have a gander.... http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Categories.aspx?CategoryID=563
Be prepared to have to buy a bigger rotor to allow fitting.
I have two calipers I could use - a Giant MPH or a Shimano Deore
I think this is what I need, with a new rotor??

Looks like the one I got when I swapped from IS to post with an old Hope caliper. +20mm on the rotor size confirmed I feel.
Ooops sorry didn't read the title properly
You will need to go up in size with the front disk - either 170mm (disc and adaptor from shimano) or 180mm - adaptors from Hope, Magura etc. I've got a 170mm XT disc and adaptor you can have, (or at least I think I have), lurking at the bottom of my box of bits. Let me know if you want them.
Hey jules.b that sounds ideal - let me know how much you want, etc (email addy in profile). Cheers, Mike
