    So fitting some x9elixirs need to know what mounts and if I need cps bolts.

    160 rotors on post mount front.
    160 rotors on IS mount rear.

    Need guidance on bolts and washer fittings too.

    Thanks in advance.

    Nowt bar the CPS washers on the front, normal brakes usually come with 20mm bolts, so i’d try 30mm. On the rear, look for an Avid “rear 160mm IS mount”,same again for the caliper bolts.

    I have a 160 rear and it looks way too small….

    And to be fair it looks like I need an adapter for the front too…

    Darn confusing and frustrating.

    Are you sure the adaptor is a rear (and facing the right way) ? If it’s a front 160, it’ll only suit a 140 on the rear. 160mm front doesn’t need adaptors for post mount, but does need the CPS washers which will space it out the correct amount with Avid calipers.

    I have cps washers coming out of my ears so will try. As for rear it is to my knowledge a 160rear IS mount, I have the arrow facing outwards so will try it facing other way.

    Thanks
