I need some rotors and pads please

[My Alien LIfe]

Ok looks like I am going with the Trek S Series 19.5" with 26" wheels. Looking at a rear wheel motor SOON.

I need new rotors and pads for this bike...

I have no idea what to get.. Can you help a dude and point me in the right direction for some pads and rotors that won't sink my wallet.

Thanks everyone

Cam

putting the wrong size rotor on a fork can be hazardous. forks are specified on the disc size they can handle.

how about pads? not sure if they are universal or?

 

[My Alien LIfe]

I just want rotors and pads that work proper for this bike..

 

[fooferdoggie]

oh yeah, good point, you should have thru axle too.

okay, 160mm it is.

plus a larger disc can hit the fork.

 

[fooferdoggie]

yeah I've upgrade discs but I never hit the fork.
However, I found that torque of larger disc was way too much for quick releaser axle.
Anyways, 160mm it is.

I put a 203 on our tandem and it just touched the fork I ground the edge down a Tiny bit and it worked. the mechanic upgraded the brakes and it never touched. so maybe he chose a different rotor or is more skilled. my fork on my commuter was only rated for 180

[My Alien LIfe]

thank you. Now I have to figure out what pads to use.

 

[My Alien LIfe]

The brakes are Avid BB5. I ordered new rotors and the disks look new.

The bike is Trek 6000 and it’s very light aluminum.

Can’t wait to stick a motor in it..

Thats the one...
jTHank you
