Big disc brake adapter?

[Whitewill1412]

If I get a set of 160mm disc brakes what kind of adapter do I need to put a larger 203mm disc on the back wheel? I'm having trouble finding something like this

No one knows?

I've never used disc brakes, but I'd guess you need to make an adapter or find some that makes them

I'm sure there has to be an adapter you can buy but I don't know what it would be called

I think @DAMIEN1307 made his own disc brake adapter

BBR Tuning Billet Aluminum Disc Brake Caliper Bracket

This works with motorized or standard bicycles and allows you to install a disk brake if you don't have the necessary mounts. No more rim or coaster brakes.

This is the one I made.

It depends on what mount the current calipers use. They make brackets for different sized discs. I have 203mm rotors front and rear on my bike. I ordered my new hydraulic calipers foe 203mm rotors so they came with the appropriate brackets.

If you can post a picture or two of the caliper and it's mount we can get you sorted.

I haven't ordered the brakes yet. I was hoping to get all the parts I need at the same time. When I get the brakes I will post some pics up on here

The caliper, disc and adapter can be purchased in a kit.

Most of the discs use the same bolt pattern. They are just larger diameter. The bigger issue is not bolting it on if the hub is disc brake compatible, but rather the clearance for the larger diameter disc.
