I know this has been asked before but no definitive answer was given... I have a set of boxxer 2013 forks with the post mount and wish to fit my #3 hope mono m4 (black/gold) to it with a 203mm rotor... I velive this cant be done unless i source. New m4 boxxer specific #6 caliper... Is this right..

I'm sure Hope could answer this question immediately and then supply the part in typically painless Hope fashion.

They supplied a part.... The wrong one... Thus this post ive emailed and called and they are just as stumped and came up with the idea of the #6 caliper. The part D adapter does not fit 🙁

Ah just realised! It's what I would have went for just for simplicity.

Odd that Hope don't know what you need.

They have said id need the #6 boxxer specific caliper. That they no longer stock after i rang up about the adapter being wrong 🙁 its a 203mm rotor and it is just too far away and only 2-3mm of disc sits in the caliper i have at the moment.

After looking many people also stated get a adapter but none work unless you get a #6 caliper... Anyone else have one to trade or know a workaround barr custom fabrication?
