What disc brakes fit a Magura FS to IS adapter?

[mattbrown]

How they're machined makes normal disc brakes not fit. When I say normal, it seems like they're all are now pm with an IS adapter, and the design of adapter doesn't fit as the holes don't extend out.

Example of the adapter shown in the link for Avid BB7 brakes

Is the mount upside down? The adapter looks like an is to is, increasing rotor size a bit.

It doesn't look fitted right to me. I've got a Magura adapter, but haven't tested it yet - am happy to try it out this evening and get back to you if it helps.
Have you fitted following the instructions? Here:

Could be your fork mount is slightly different, with the extended top leg... However that won't affect fitting a PM->IS adapter.

Please can you try. I think I've found some old cable discs on ebay that would fit, but nothing that uses a is to pm will fit.

Here's my adapter fitted to the '98 Z1 Alloy fork:

This is the selection of spare IS to PM adapters I have spare. Plus a Quad cable disc. None of them fit.

These are number 3 and number 8 Hope DH4 calipers. They also do not fit.

The only thing I haven't tried are my 1st gen Magura Julie brakes - the silver ones. Probably a good chance they would work ok.
An IS to PM adapters would probably work with the middle cut out and a bit of filing.
