I’ve taken the plunge and ordered a 456 ti. Please can you ti owners post some pics of yours for build ideas.

Also, what max size rotor can I use?

203mm if you really want to, but never needed more than a 160mm and tbh when I lived down south, 140mm was fine.

Thanks for the info on rotor size, I’ve got a 183mm that I can use.

Nice bike Jonny, is that a 16″ or 18″? I’ve got 2×10 that I’m thinking of transferring, are you 1×10 or 1×11??

Just right, I did ride it with some dp rev’s, but found the 120 setting better, so that’s why I put the 120 dt’s on
Rotor size I’m on 160 front and back ice tech with finned pads and find them superb
It’s a 16″ (I’ m 5’8″) and 1×10
