Hi all
Does anyone know if you can buy SRAM road (apex, force etc) disc calipers by themselves?
Ive got some post mount apex levers and calipers. If i get a different frame ill probably need flat mount calipers. Can they be got? Will they work with the same levers as the post mount.

You can convert flat mount frame to post with adapters

Ooh - I hadn't realised that Hope were doing those, thank you.
It is possible to convert a flat-mount frame to take post-mount calipers, but not a post-mount frame to take flat-mount calipers. Shimano (definitely because I've got some, but other suppliers are available) make front and rear adaptors for flat frame to post caliper.

If you are after the RX4's Winstanley cycles have them in stock

My bike shop quoted me "about 100 quid" to get a single SRAM Force flat mount caliper. I think I'll stick with my post mount calipers and a set of £10 converter mounts.

oh wow. my thread has come back to life!
I didnt know about those RX4s. Love hope hubs. but its going to be £160 a pair vs the slightly inelegant looking flat-mount to post-mount adapters.
Think it might be the adapters.

Im actually trying to figure out how to post an image.
