Have a set of Avid Ultimate brakes... the front came as a 160 front post caliper with an IS mount but need to fit this to a post mount fork with a 180 rotor (pro 3 wheels with 3 bolt rotors) and need some help.. aah

Has anyone had the problem with getting a post to post adaptor to fit an avid brake to a 180 rotor??

Avid only seem to offer an adaptor that is for a 185 rotor and other adaptors get in the way of the brake pads that stick out of the caliper ;-/ (below)

Any help/advise would be a great help

Cheers Stu

Use a Hope adaptor, I'm running a 183mm Hope floating rotor on and Avid Ultimate post mount front calliper. You may need some spacers as well.
