matheprat Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Right, I have a Hope mini, number 3 caliper, and a 185mm wavey rotor. My understanding is that to use the Hope mini on the Koxx forks, I will need to get a rotor 20mm bigger than the one it's supposed to go with as the mount is funny. Can someone clarify this before I buy a 205mm rotor? Will it all work? Many thanks, Mat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 You'll need a 215mm rotor. Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebor Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Plus I'm not selling you mine for £5 (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynio Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 its plus 30mm like adam has specified the disc size for you. Waynio...................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matheprat Posted July 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 (edited) Ok, cheers guys. Hehe nah, don't want yours at all now mate :lol: And where can I get such a rotor? Does the it matter whether its wavey or straight? Are they both classified as the same size?

Bigman Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 You'll need a 215mm rotor. Adam ← its plus 30mm like adam has specified the disc size for you. Waynio...................... ← U both are wrong, sorry to tell u this, The koxx forks in question are a set that i am sellin him, they require a 180mm rotor, if a 160m caliper is used, as my mate used a 160mm shimano XT 4 pot, and he had to use a 180mm rotor on the forks, unlike the 190mm he used on his previous koxx forks.

Trebor Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Probably best off ringing Koxx then, it'll only take a minute :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynio Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 no he is actually correct. i remmeber fred offering me a set with a 190mm rotor or 180mm rotor i apologise sincerly bigman :lol: B) so if that is affecting his sale i will take it all back and have to say that Bigman is correct. Waynio........................ i dont know the reason why but the forks are the same just slight different rotor sizes required :o :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not affecting the sale, I've allready sent the money off and would be happy with the forks eather way, just trying to get the right rotor sorted B). I will contact Koxx, but you guys recon its a +20? So I will need a 205mm rotor? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philking Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 If the forks are 2004 or older then it is plus 20mm, if they are 2005 then it is plus 30mm. They changed it again this year for the new hope trial brake. I know this is correct as i have had both... so there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynio Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 gud stuff phil. yes you would need a 20+ disc so if a caliper number 3 on an old mini it would have takn a 185 would take with koxx forks 205 :lol: :o Waynio...............
