GALFER BIKE is including in the catalogue two models of radial adapters (post mount system) that allow mounting bigger brake discs (20mm to 40mm bigger outer diameter) both front and rear. To mount the new SB001 and SB002 you need four bolts, two fixed to the caliper and two fixed to the fork (front) or the frame (rear). With this system the caliper stays firmly attached and well placed relative to the brake disc, avoiding vibrations and/or torsions that would cause noise while braking and disc deformation.
The adapter SB001 allows separating the caliper to mount brake discs 40mm bigger, while the adapter SB002 allows mounting discs with an outer diameter 20mm bigger. The following table shows the conversion for the new GALFER caliper adapters:

In GALFER we recommend having an expert to mount your adapters as well as not to use axial separators (IS system) for discs bigger than ø180mm. GALFER does not accept responsibility for damages caused by improper installation. The adapter comes with two bolts with washers.
The new adapters SB001 and SB002 weigh 22g, and will be available from May, 2018 at 8.15€/unit (Excl.VAT).
