Got them from Chain as were £54 each.

Shortening/bleeding was easy, just trying to adjust the calipers/pads so they don't rub....grrr

Thanks for that, it's likely i'll be getting those. I'm in the UK and the prices look similar.

I'm quite happy working with the hydraulics so shortening lines isn't a problem.

Thanks again for the advice!

Unfortunately that's the only way if fits on, and both are identical (IS mounts). I'll put it in the spares box, it is ancient anyway!


So what brakes? If XT, do they just bolt on, and what would be the rear rotor size? Any preferred rotor makes?

I was going to re-use my hope minis on my new 057 frame, with the +20mm adaptor (IS to PM) and have 200/180 rotors, however on the rear with a 180 rotor it's still not a big enough rotor!




So am i doing something stupid (always a possibility!)?


I have budgeted for new brakes, something from this decade!, so any suggestions welcome (and if/what adaptors i would need, fork is rockshox pm)

Thanks

So i'm getting some stans on hope pro 2 evos , am i right in thinking (as it is 142x12) i need the 2 conversion cap thingys and then a 12mm axle? And can I use a shimano axle? (unless someone knows of a better one!)

As I'm not using the front der, should i leave the internal cable holes open or plug them?

And finally, what size are the post mount bolts as i've got the adaptors for my mini monos but need 2 more bolts.

Thanks

Thank you!

I was going to put in a Cane Creek headset to my lovely new frame, however I just wanted to double check which headset it is exactly before I buy one...

So if anyone knows....thanks!
