Thought I'd post this in case it helps someone else. I rode at Bike Park Wales yesterday, and at about 108kg kitted up [:cry:] each climb up the Beast of Burden forest road (I didn't ride the BoB forest trails at all) in Turbo used about 19%, and each descent in Turbo used about 6%. Therefore...

Thanks very much again. I really appreciate it!

I don't mind spending the money, but trying to confidently work out which adapters I need is proving to be a challenge!

Ah okay, thanks. I’m replacing the Shimano calipers and rotors with products from Hope, so it sounds like I do need the adapters.

Sorry (again). I just noticed that the CFR includes 220/203mm rotors so do I actually need Hope adapters if I’m replacing the Shimano rotors with the same size from Hope?

Thanks so much! This stuff isn’t easy to work out

Hey. I've ordered a 220mm rotor for the front, and 203mm for the rear.

Thanks @Stephan-Qc and @S1mmo :) Do you perhaps have a link to the adapters you used? There are SO many options and I don't know what to order.

Sorry, one more question. Did you have to buy any mount adapters to get the Hope Tech 4 V4s to fit? https://www.hopetech.com/products/brakes/accessories/brake-mounts/

Thanks for the info! In that case I might try the TRPs too.

Ah, okay :)

Those TRP rotors are about half the price of the Hope vented rotors. I was going to go for some Galfers but they’re 2.0mm. Those TRPs could be a better option at 2.3mm.

Nice one, thanks! Those V4 specific rotors are really pricey.

Thanks so much! The 12x142 description threw me off since the wheels are 12x148, but I guess it’s compatible because it says “or BOOST” too.

@RJUK apologies for the tag, but I think you installed the SRAM Transmission too? Do you perhaps have a link to the part you used to make the rear wheel compatible?

Looks lovely! Are those the 2.3mm thick Hope rotors?

Thanks very much for the link, super helpful! It's tempting from a cost perspective to replace the cassette and carry on, but I've had to fiddle with the gears almost every time I've gone riding. I don't get the opportunity to ride often, so it's frustrating to waste time. I've been...

Hi all, A word of warning before you continue. I am completely inept when it comes to bike servicing, maintenance and compatibility knowledge. I only enjoy riding them, and not the associated tinkering. I've had issues with my CFR since I got it (detailed elsewhere on this forum), and...

Is that the Fixed Disc Wave? If you’re reading the pads too, what are you replacing them with?

Thanks very much @emtbeast :) It certainly sounds like it’ll be worth a try!
