I bought an 11 speed Red Etap kit, hydro brakes that are post mount. My frame is flat mount. The Shimano adapters to make the post mount work look funky. I have 11 speed Mechanic Force shifters and flat mount discs. If I take off the Red post mount calipers and put the Force flat mount on will it work?
Thanks for the help in advance?

Is there also a thread for Red22 Shifter with eTap Caliper? Doesn't have to be a big one.

The official word. The post mount adapters for flat mount brake were Fugly with the post mount brakes on them. Plus I had 1mm of clearance from the seatstay. I put on the Force flat mount calipers today and it was a win win. They work awesomely with the Red eTap shifter levers and are much lighter than the Red post mount calipers with the post to flat mount adapters.
