MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
So looking at getting some of the new SRAM HS2 rotors. Going to go for the 200mm version. Currently have 180s so assume I need a post mount to post mount adapter for the bigger size. Do I also need longer bolts?
Currently Code Rs on Lyric Select+ fork
Do I also need longer bolts?
Depends on the adapter. Some use two longer bolts that run through the adapter to the fork. Others use four standard bolts - the adapter is bolted to the fork with two, then the caliper bolts to the adapter with two more. I prefer the second type because you are less likely to damage the threads in the fork if you are hamfisted.
Agree with above, the fewer times you need to screw steel into magnesium the better.
IMHO, lose the god awful long bolts thru type that need the cup n cone washers and get a Hope L adapter.
Cheers everyone. I will have a look at the second type and the hope ones. Thanks
