Just replacing my forks with a new set after my crash.
My old forks have the IS mount but the new forks have the PM threaded holes inline with the forks. Just looking on superstar to see if they have what i need.
a standard post mount on a fork is usally 160mm so yes you will need type 7 to take it up to 180mm
what is your current brake? most calipers these days are post mount so I’m gussing you’d have a type 3 mount already attached. simply remove that mount and fit the new one
Its a bit of a minefield.
Same problem fitting a Juicy7 to a Pace XCM130.
Mount bought off CRC, as a 185mm PM to PM.
Ended up using a stack of washers because just couldnt get the thing to line up…
Notice how the correct one is just slightly thicker top & bottom.
I think the first one is actually a 180mm or something. Looks about 2.5mm slimmer.
This one in case your intrested…
