|  Want to mount a Hayes 8" w/71mm caliper to Manitou | Bruce Mar 31, 2002 3:59 PM | | Would be simple if the caliper was a 74mm spacing, but is a 71mm so does anyone know of an adaptor or do I need to get something machined?
Obviously will have to offset the mount a bit too otherwise the bolts mounting to the fork are gonna be real close to the caliper bolts.
Any suggestions? |
|  my guess..... | biztyke Mar 31, 2002 4:48 PM | | is that youll have to get something machined, or buy a 74mm half caliper(about $30-40). i doubt there are any adapters available for that 71mm....... |
|  Link to 8 inch adapter. But.... | BCRider Mar 31, 2002 9:32 PM | | ...not sure if this is what you want but it came up in a thread down this forum a little ways talking about 8 inch rotors.

I'll try to find the measurements for the custom one I made.
