Anybody any experience with this combo?
Does anybody know if I can get a Hope No 3 IS caliper to fit a 2006 Marzocchi Post mount fork and what adapter do i need?

I'm cofused 😳 Will I need a bigger rotor? Do Hope make one to fit 'zocchi forks? It lists this to fit a 183mm rotor but aren't the Hope ones 185mm
aaaaarrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhh!!!
Thanks
Edit: All of those are for PM calipers, not IS.
This is the one you want (and I've used):

So i would have to buy a new larger rotor too? i.e go from the 185 rotor to 203 one?
Isn't there an adapter I can buy to keep the same rotor size?
You need this. No rotor change needed.

Spokes, I tried that following your advice last week and it doesn't work with Hope Mono M4 No3 Calipers. The way the calipers are designed, the curve of the reservoir juts into mount and the bolt holes don't line up.
Had to send it back.
Spokes isn't that Manitou specific? I need to Marzocchi
You can get an adaptor that doesn't need a 20mm rotor.
I've got one I'll never use it as I've not got the Hope brakes anymore. I may have robbed the bolts for something else but if you want the actual adaptor email me and you can have it for postage.
Thanks Higgo - appreciate that.
Not sure that would work.
The No 3 caliper is specifically designed for a 185mm disc.
It seems I'd have to use a specific Hope adapter unless anybody knows anything different?
Sounds like it's because the adapter pushes the caliper out by about 20mm meaning only a larger rotor would fit.
You either need a new half caliper if you want to keep the same rotor size or a HBSM20H hope mount with a 20mm bigger rotor.
cheers Derry - thought so
Ach, that's a beggar. I'll make a mental note of that.
Also worth noting that the HBSM20 mount doesn't fit certain Marzocchi forks, and will need some attention with a file to mate the two(can't remember which forks though, sorry).
