WezGK Posted September 1, 2014 Posted September 1, 2014 Hi. Anyone know who's the best local stockist of disc brake mount adaptors? I know I can get from the likes of CRC but would like to attempt at local first... Specs are: Front-Avid IS mount 180mm rotorRear-Avid IS 160mm rotor They for the Avid elixir 1 onto a GT Avalanche frame... All suggestions appreciated. .. Thanx
Skylark Posted September 1, 2014 Posted September 1, 2014 CWC has quite a few last I checked, do you need IS to post mount or IS to IS?
WezGK Posted September 2, 2014 Author Posted September 2, 2014 IS to Post mount... ok cool. I emailed them last night. Will give the guys a call this morning. .. thanx

Thanx hahaha....at least im not the only one that had this problem....got mine the other day. There are quite a different sizes for the adaptor, so make sure you get the right size. Mine also went onto a GT frame. LBS should have them
Skylark Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Also the 2 mounts you are looking for are identical, 160mm rear is the same as 180 front, for some reason they still label them as front and rear even though they are identical. So if a shop says they only have 2 180 fronts or 2 160 rears they will do the job.
