Hope definitely make 4 bolt rotors to fit CODA. Formula make a 4 bolt rotor, but I am not sure if it will fit a CODA hub or not. Should imagine it does though. Also, Magura USED to make 4 bolt rotors as Cannondale specced Maggy brakes on a number of their bikes. Don't know if these were special OEM brakes though.

The rear brake seems to be a problem. The Coda Caliper never had enough stopping power for me. I tried a magura louise brake with a Coda Expert hub and rotor. The rotor was small at 151mm and did not get enough swept area on the rotor. Changed to a magura 4 bolt rotor 160mm, and it was better, but the rotor spacing was off by a little bit. It was usable. If I had to do it again, I would definitely get rid of all Coda items. Still got that 151mm rotor if you need one. Jim
Hayes makes the rotors. My shop has made Hayes work....WEBERTIME

The rotors are made for C-Dale by Hayes. They are the same thickness The Rear I believe needs just the Hayes to IS adapter, and the front needs the same if you are running a small CODA rotor or if you have the larger one you need an 8" Hayes to IS adapter and just flip it upside-down. Try sliding your wheels and rotors into a bike with hayes and you'll see.
Thanks for the infoafzim

This information is for a friend with a Jekyll with the lefty fork.
I put Martas on my Jekyll while I could still get 4 bolt rotors from Magura. I heard a rumor that Magura would no longer produce 4 bolt rotors. Since it is not cheap to replace hubs and brakes, I appreciate the helpful information and will pass it along to my friend.
