Mrs B has just bought some Hope RX4 calipers for her gravel bike. She wants some new discs. Are Hope road and mtb calipers the same? Her hibs are CL, but she only seems able to find 140mm discs in 6 bolt flavour.
Are there any problems using 6 bolt Hope mtb discs with adapters?
Thanks
Ian

+1

I'd consider 160s though. Minimal extra g but defo better braking.

You know Hope now do Centrelock rotors? I think they’re not cheap, but do look bloody gorgeous!

I've been using Hope 160mm 6 bolt floating MTB rotors on all of my road bikes for several years with RX4 callipers.

No problems. Hope road rotors just seem too expensive for what they are - they seem to ahve a road tax applied to them.

Their Centerlock rotors for example would be £120 a pair!!!
