Hi all, I have just got a new set of deore brakes and the rotors on my CoTic soul seem to big for them. What do I need to make them work ?
Cheers

The spacers off my old formula brakes don't seem to line up with the rotors. It rubs on the front and doesn't work on the back.

Have you got the correct Shimano brake adaptors ?

No I don't. I just found them online then. Might be a silly question but will shimano adaptors line up better than my old formula ones ? Cheers

Yes
If you have Deore brakes and your Revs are post mount you need

For the rear

But you may find the 180 rear rotor catches it did on my Soul due to being close and the flex in the frame. Think they are better / its advised with 160 rear.
