[#2161588]

the caliper is post mount no.11. I've got an adaptor for my IS forks that says 160 R with an arrow pointing down on it ( it think this is for rear, but same for front 180?). It's been setup on mates bike with 180 rotor on an is mount, and from looking at the pad wear, it hasn't grabbed the whole of the rotor, just most of it. I've installed it on my rebas, with the adaptor, and my 180 rotor still doesnt "fill" the whole caliper and pads. Is it meant to be like that?. My mono mini grabs the whole rotor.

does that make sense? What adaptor do you use for a post mount No.11 M4 on IS fork for 180 rotor, have I got the right one?

Should be a Hope F-type, or poss a J-type for a 183mm rotor.The F type is also for a 160mm rear, so your 160 rear mount should work unless you've either mounted it upside down,your rotor isn't 180mm, or you have forks with an inbuilt +20mm mount(which your Reba isn't).EDIT-I think the clue may be the arrow pointing down when it should be pointing upwards.

Wasn't caliper number 11 a special for Manitou post mount or something?

cheers for the info Coatesy, i've tried the adaptor the other way, and that's not it. I think it needs a 183 rotor. It still works anyways, so I'm off for a ride! Sun's out ๐Ÿ™‚
