[#301894]

After changing forks I now need a front 160mm post mount adaptor for a Formula K18. Formula seem to only sell them with a rotor which I thnik is a bit unfair.

I've emailed Propel to find out if they can supply just a mount.

Has anyone else had the same problem and found an alternative?

Shimano mounts will work I believe

Heard they might but 180mm Post to Post seems to be the smallest they do.

What are you trying to do? Caliper should bolt straight on to the forks for 160mm no?

Trying to be a cheap ass and make a 160mm rotor I already have fit.

I think I may have to put a bigger rotor on now.

Basically old fork was a Pike, new fork is a Lyrik.

If the caliper is post mount, it should work with 160mm rotor without an adaptor.

Cheers rockthreegozy.

Can't believe I was being a numpty, something should have clicked when I knew it was a post mount caliper.

Just fitted and all is perfect.
