Looking at changing my Avid Code's for some Formula The One's.

Obviously it'll keep the cost down if I don't need to buy new rotors and mounts.

Anyone done something similar or know if this'll work?

Be careful of what size adaptors you order, most formulas come with 200,180 disks and adapters but avid disks are 185 and 205.

so make sure you get the right adapters when you arder

also the formula the one brakes have a lot of "throw" in the lever before they bite, and using avid disks will increase this throw as they are slightly thinner than the formula's.

That said this is on the old style the one, the newer lever style may be OK.
