madmarc Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 So i'm busy upgrading an old TREK series 8000 from V-Brake to Disc Brake. The fork mount is no problem, but the rear is 22mm post mount which I need to convert to ISO mount with an adaptor, like in the pictures. Does anyone have one laying around or know where I can get one
Sepia Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Try Greg Minaar in Pmb. I got one there. Had to look for it though.
TheJ Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 I got one somewhere. Tried it for my Trek 8900. Same as what you trying to do. Didnt fit. Need to look for it though...

madmarc Posted September 20, 2015 Author Posted September 20, 2015 The seatstays were too fat.Interesting point, I'll need the check that, If you find it let me know, I'd buy it off you
TheJ Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Looks like the guy with thr XTR above had to machine some meat off the caliper to get it to fit.
mudda Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 make one ... L piece of metal ... measure ... cut to shape ; drill holes ... fit and ride ... done.

Edit.Wait, read to fast never seen 22mm post mount, a converter for that is probably avail on eBay, I'd have a quick look there.
