Bought a pair of Mag wheels from Gasbike and ( dum) seperately bought a 160mm disk kit off Amazon prime because shipping to Hawaii is a bummer.
The problem is the six hole pattern on the disk is a few mm bigger than the hole pattern on the mags Anyone know a disk that fits the Gasbike mags?

Question 2:
is there a good tophat, adaptor,standoff so I can run a rear disk with the 42t drive sprocket?
Thanks Yall

Thats odd, the 160mm disc should fit right on there, is the bolt pattern for a shimano disc or a sram disc?

As bike for life said, that one he linked should be good enough for what your doing.

What is the bolt pattern difference between Shimano and SRAM?

you might actually have the front wheel on the rear, as they have slimier bolt patterns but the rear is meant for the sprocket, thats why 6 bolt pattern is a bit smaller.


the shimano one uses m5 screws and uses the IS 6 bolt standard (newer sram discs also use this)

the older sram brakes use there own custom bolt battern, its a bit larger than the IS bolt pattern (they also has weird size rotors, like 185 and 158mm)
 
also, be sure to measure the BCD (bolt circle diameter)

for the IS standard its 44mm
