It's got the original older SLX discs on it now. Juicys are notoriously rubbish and didn't want to take the chance of them failing whilst I was out riding.

Fork and frame have mounts for IS 160 mm disc callipsrs.

If you want to go biggef on the discs you would nred adapter, note that mounting rear is calliler on fork allows 180 mm discd withoht adapter as it has longer lrgs.

If you have pozt mount callipets, you will need adaptef for vrame a.d fork, the shape of adaptef dicyates disc size.


.... and you woukd need whes witb disc hubs, yku coukd relace your wheels with new hubs but that is a lot of effort and spokes may not be correct length.

Do it discs rule!!!!!!!
