As the title but without having to make any modifications to calipers etc?

Dunno about elixers, but they work fine with juicys. As far as I'm aware (with the exception of hope vented rotors) a rotor is a rotor is a rotor...

As what tree-magnet says, they work fine with Juicy's and the Elixir is basically the same caliper with just a different lever

Juicy Ultimates don't without modification and floating rotors. Had to remove some metal to get it work 🙂

Yep, absolutely fine, with Elixir CR callipers and XX callipers.

Juicys are not the same callipers either, particularly the Ultimates.

I had clearance problems with the same combo.
Filed the caliper down a tiny bit and that solved the problem.

Sounds like the tolerances vary then!
