You make simply the best how-to videos on bikes. They’re always simple and straight to the point, yet completely thorough with no missing info.

@dabikeguru Год назад

My first bike build was all done with your videos mate. Thank you so very much. Always crystal clear and most importantly explaining the torque settings every time. Your video capturing technique is simple and always cover the most important stuff your doing. Really appreciate you videos. I found this new hobby.

You remind me to put the washers, I didn't find any use for them. Now I know. Merci beaucoup pour la vidéo.

Exactly the info I needed just when I needed it. Super clear instructions🎉

As always:, well explained, nothing left out, very helpful for bike maintenance. You take your time, but that's necessary if you don't want to make mistakes tending your precious bike. Thanks!

Starting my first Di2, 8070 build this week and I must have watched 4 hours of your videos already - spot on mate.

@nigelstanley3674 3 года назад

Finally just got round to doing this installation but TRP callipers. Even simpler. Thanks. Very helpful. Five minute job. Cheers

Thank you, thought I was going mad. Could not understand the instructions supplied. Spent two hours turning it this way and that, should have come to you first!

I am performing this exact procedure, with the exact same kit, on a Cannondale Quick 4 (Tektro calipers) The bolts trough the frame into the caliper seem to have a fixed washer on them. Much thinner than the ones in the kit. I just wanted to see if I was on the right track Great vid! Thanks for sharing.

@mitchpeters8984 2 года назад

Nicely explained, cheers!! By the way, I had to install the thick washers -the ones that came with the adapter - between the adapter and the caliper, disc would rub the top part of the caliper without the washers in there.

Agree. Had the same experience.

@jonathanb8336 3 года назад

Cheers for the video, I’m doing the reverse & going from 160 to 140 so hopefully all the bolts fit & there’s enough movement in the the hydraulic pipe to allow me to do this👍

@ulop1599 3 года назад

hi sir, i'm also thinking of doing the same, did the bolts fit properly without having to buy shorter bolts? thanks!

@jonathanb8336 3 года назад

@@ulop1599 hi, yes the original bolts worked fine. They bolt the adapter plate to the chain stay in the 160mm disc format, when you reduce to 140mm the bolts go through the chain stay directly into the calliper as you no longer require the adapter plate👍

@glennoc8585 4 года назад

Tried.the 160 then.went back to 140. I'd consider going to 160 again.for bike touring in the hills with extra weight.because you do get a boost to the braking.

@thedownunderverse 2 года назад

Are you still using the 140mm? Road bike? I’m preparing my first ever road disc build (campy) and considering 140mm front and rear.

@Vytautas74 3 года назад

Hi there. Thank You for sharing an useful how to do guide on this adapter. However, I have a question: those 2 silver washers that go with 2 longer screws into the frame brake mount; do those washers need to go all the way in inside the frame or just slightly touch the outside of mount area while keeping both screws snug ?

@fernandocruz9243 2 года назад

hi there, thanks for nice video. What is the size of the longer bolt ? mine got loose thread, Im gonna need a longer bolt at least 1 1/5 inch. pls advise. thanks

What screws lenght did you get in the end? I am just about to build new bike and switching to 160 rotos but confused about screws lenght 🤔 Any feedback is appreciated

@LUCKYLUCKYMULLEN 2 года назад

Hi, great video as usual, I was going to put some Shimano deore brakes onto a CX bike for my son as he can't cope with drop down bars, I assume the process would be the same when putting them onto a flat mount frame and forks or is there a special adapter required? Many thanks!

@FreeToCycle 2 года назад

Kenneth you can keep the flat mount calipers and just change the levers! The flat mount calipers will work fine with flat bar mtb brake levers!

@LUCKYLUCKYMULLEN 2 года назад

@@FreeToCycle thanks, I may try the post to flat mount f and r adapters first as it may be a lower cost option for me. Love the videos.

@some12see 2 года назад

I lose my small safety clip at rear caliper and no idea where to buy or get one of those...is it alright to run without that small safety clip? I saw on the caliper there is little hole to place that little safety clip...the hole is go through to the other side of caliper and looks like does nothing to hold... Anyone have any idea?

@luisrivas643 3 года назад

What size are the 2nd set of bolts you installed? And do I need to use those specific bolts?

@sirkrosman 2 года назад

His using the 2 bolt who come with the plate and reuse the same long bolt with the new washer from the box to fix the caliper+plate to the frame. He say it in the video at 5:15.

For the front brake you can flip the adapter round!

Hello, i have a giant TCR advanced pro 1 disc 2020, I have front 160mm with adaptor, and I need to convert in to 140mm, but I need a adaptor and I don't know witch is. SM-MA-R140PDA it's ok ?

To change the front disc from 160 to 140mm you just turn the adaptor upside down!

@DWMtukwila Год назад

I switched to 160mm and what a mistake! The brakes are entirely to easy to lock up. I weigh 150 so maybe a heavy guy would find them fine. I have decades of experience road racing and riding, so it is not a lack of skill.
