Help Needed

[Catex16]

Hi All, I just swapped wheels on my Sonder Camino, They are centrelock 650b, I bought centtelock rotors, however the rear rotor now doesnt fit into the caliper properly, the botton 4-5mm of the pads contacts the outer of the brake rotor, I swapped back to 6 bolt using a Hunts adaptor but same problem, any advice on solution or is this an incompatibility issue and I need to start drinking again?

Welcome aboard @Catex16 !

Unfortunately I don't know a thing about disc brakes so I don't have anything to add to that.

Like the guy in Jaws once said "I think you need a bigger boat rotor!". If it's only catching a fraction off the pad then that's the only solution I can think of unless there are a few spacers on the caliper that you can remove for adjustment.

Rotors come in different sizes. Check what size you need front and rear and get the right size.

Hi The rotor size is correct , bigger rotors wouldn't work , also some bikes aren't designed to handle 180mm rotors, this should have been very straight forward, The design of this frame has changed from the previous frame, it is now designed to have native 160mm rotors, so no adaptor required, most are designed ( road/gravel) to have native 140mm rotors at the rear but use an adaptor to facilitate 160mm rotors no one seemed to know about this change, anyway all sorted now, hope this helps someone else
