to run 185 Avid Mechs on a Sherman?

anyone have one? BTI is out, and it seems all the major online shops are out.

do any other companies make something that will work?

i rode them on a sherman, they work better than most hydraulics (cough hayes, cough hayes) and are pretty nice and easy to maintane. Dunno where you can gettem. did you try Quality or that other specialty Company?

QBP doesn't list them, so i assume they're out, or don't carry them. and BTI is out.

oh, i'm referring to the adaptor, but the way. i have the brakes and the fork, i just need the adaptor.

theyre a good place to deal with...usually if they dont have it, it comes off the site....so id guess its in stock...no promises though

um, you could just space it.... little sketchy, but would work. hell i'd do it

ok, how about this.....is it possible to rig a 2nd gen Avid Mech caliper to accept a 160mm rotor on a Sherman?

i space my disc rotars. i dont know, im not to familiar with that combo. one day this will all be international standar and there wont be any problems.

you QBP doesn't list them but I know that's where I got mine this past spring, could be OOS I suppose. Like DHS said you could probably stack washers for a temporary fix or go to the hardware store and look for some standoffs of some sort, stainless, aluminum, brass anything should work for a while. If you need some measurements, let me know and I'll get them for you.
