    Whatever fits on the hub 🙂

    I’ve got both and neither bothers me one way or the other.

    6 bolt. It’s simple and has more options for hubs. YMMV

    I personally prefer centerlock, so easy and quick to change rotors, very reliable and you can get the discs cheaper as others hate them and sell them cheap. This may be because the first proper bike I bought had them on. But as above, it really doesn’t matter.

    Centerlock is technically better.
    6 bolt is better in practice.

    I prefer centre lock as changing it is easier, not that I’ve had any issue with 6 bolt.

    But then how often do you change your rotors???

    In reality both systems work fine, just go with what ever is cheaper and compatible with your hubs.

    Seriously? A ‘what disc brake mounting style forum post’ ??

    Buy what ever fits your hub. I have a roadrat with Alfine hub; so centre lock on the back, 6-bolt on the front..
