As above. I'm changing wheels & rotors on a disc-braked bike to larger rotors, so of course the new rotors are too big to fit into the brakes. What do I do to change the brake mechanism position?

put the rotors in the washing machine on a hot wash, repeat until rotors are correct size.

ta, somouk. If the washing machine trick doesn't work, I'll buy a different mount

The ones linked by somouk are Post Mount to Post Mount adaptors, check if you have IS fitting or Post Mount fitting on the fork and frame as that will require different adaptors.
