New 35mm SIDs, minimum rotor is 180mm, so presume no adaptor needed and just bolt brakes straight on? If so is there a particular bolt I should be using (Deores)?

Ta.

No adaptor needed if you're running 180 discs...

Adaptor needed if you're running 200+.

Is that what you meant?

You can't fit 160, you can fit 180 without an adaptor, 200 will need an adaptor.

Normal brake mount bolts. M6x20 IIRC, should have some with your brakes

Cheers guys, yeah running 180. Need to get some bolts. Do they need the half-dome bits that help it to centre, or just the washer?

No. You don't need the dome washers. Standard M6 cap head bolts will do it.

Why do you need new bolts? You should just be able to re-use your existing ones.
