I'm trying to fot a 185 disc to the front of my hybrid.

Bought a genuine mount but i still can't get the bugger to fit!.
It won't move to the "outside" enough to centralise and clear

The mount looks very beefy compared to other i hae in my parts box.
Are there other adapters?
Is there a slimline one?
What am i missing?!

The bie may well go back tomorrow so the shop can check it over (its new).
I juat feel a bit of a tit for failing at fetting the discs set up right!

Disc mounts need facing maybe?

Slightly out of line?
