Hey guys, quick question.

I dont wanna buy a wrong adapter so I shall ask you!

I purchased this fork, and i will buy Shimano XT brakes. what is the product name / number for the correct mount for the brake caliber? :)

IS Fork -> Post Caliper 160mm will fit a post caliper to an IS mount fork with a 160mm rotor, and will fit a post caliper to a rear IS frame with a 140mm disc.


^ That if you want to use a 160mm rotor.

Bear in mind though that the On-One fork on the website is 1 1/8 not tapered which might be a bit of a PITA for most modern frames

The Fork is no problem, I have fitted it to the bike already. I can see that the fork is not a "normal" post mount disc setup. that is why I was worried.

I'll just run 140 then, should I use this?

You will run 160mm on front, because the adapters on Bik24 website only do 140mm on the rear. The same adapter that does 160mm on the front will do 140mm on the rear.
