Okay so…. Woke up at 5 and couldn’t stop thinking about it so got out early, amazing what not rushing and a bit of sleep can do!
All fitted and fully operational!
Thank you 👍
I will caveat that I am someone who’s always taken my bike to a bikeshop for anything like brakes but over the years have learnt that I’m not happy with how a bolt was slightly rounded or the money I spent so I’m a rider learning to do everything himself and an adapter shouldn’t defeat me and think I was just rushing!
The only thing to decide now, is if I want to get 203 ice-tech rotors or stick with the SRAM 200’s…. From what I’m reading Ice-tech’s basically eliminate brake fade which the SRAM’s suffered from but also I now have finned pads so that should also help heat dissipate.
Is it acceptable to just add a small spacer to the caliper bolts to get to the 203mm or should I be able to do a straight swap?
Then again I’ve read Galfer disks are meant to be very good, I’ll use them in anger and see if I need to change
Glad your sorted 👍
When I've mixed SRAM and Shimano, I've found it much easier to buy a simple band-on clamp for the shifter.

Ignore that, you're all sorted!
