Brake problem solver, ahoy!

There are numerous "standards" on the bike. For example, how the brake calliper is mounted on the rear triangle and fork. With the tailwind of the gravel trend, the so-called flatmount brake mount is gaining ground. If you want to mount a flatmount brake on a mountain bike with a post mount, Wolf Tooth offers a very practical little helper milled from aluminum.

Attention, here are some technical terms: With the post-to-flat mount brake adapter from Wolf Tooth, flat mount brakes can be fitted to a frame or fork if they have a post mount.

This sounds complicated, but it has its advantages: if you want to ride a road or gravel groupset on a mountain bike, this adapter is worth its weight in gold. But it's not quite that simple: it's important to note that this is a +20 millimeter adapter, which means that a native 140 millimeter post mount will only work with a 160 millimeter rotor, just as a native 160 millimeter post mount will only work with a 180 millimeter rotor. And the adapter has a certain height, for which there must be space on the fork or rear triangle.
