bought some very lovely HOPE brakeset over here some times ago, and now want to use them on one of my full sussers instead of the inferior noisy and "no chance to cetralize" Avid Juicy 7 :evil:
Levers are Mini ones; one caliper is a PM style no.9-74 and one is no.5 in IS 160 front and 140 rear. both are single piston ones. Dont know what they are called excactly (C.., Mono, Mini) ???
As I'm not so familiar with Hope brakes I'm a bit confused, as I cant find they right adapter to go with the no.9 caliper for a 180 mm front rotor layout on a RockShox Reba with PM. Can I use just any adapter PM to PM 180 or do I need a Hope one ? Do I need a 183 mm Hope rotor or can I go the 180 mm route ?
For the rear I want a 160 mm rotor. Is there a 140 IS to 160 IS adapter available or do I have to look for some other caliper (PM or 160 IS) ?
thanks for helping me out of that dilemma.
