Shimano Saint Adaptors

Recommended Posts

I've got hold of a pair of m810 Saints now and just need to sort mounts out. Sadly though as soon as the words post mount get mentioned my brain melts so I just wanted to double check what it was I need to fit them. My frame and forks have both got a +20mm mount and I'll be running 180 rotors so will I just need some front and rear specific post to IS 160 adaptors? What about bolts, do I use the ones with dome washers like on a BB7?

Finally does it need to be a Shimano mount or will any post to IS mount do?

Been looking at these;

I just use the cheap Clarks 203 adaptors on CRC (my rotors are 203), same thing but half the price.

I think most trials frames are +20, I'm not 100% on it all myself so get someone to confirm that.

Doesn't need to be Shimano though, any will do.

On the front, you want a 160 front mount. On the rear, you want a 160 rear. Simple as that. The Clarkes ones are perfect mate. Or get dez to sort you some shimano ones out. As for bolts, just normal m6 bolts are fine, washers where necessary :)

The avid brakes with the washers have different spacing on the caliper.

To keep this simple any is 160 mount will fit fine with the +20 frames and fork.

Though some 160 front mounts you will find need some filing to clear the large calipers.

The shimano ones are around £8 at retail.

Oh if you use the avid mounts don't use the washers.
