Does the Job Perfectly
Pros: Attractive, High Quality, Good Fit
"After a lot of searching I ordered this as an adapter for my tektro auriga comp brakes - front fork mounted, so I could fit a 180mm rotor. Fitted fine but not the 5 minute job I thought but probably because the instructions aren't great and there's a funny little plastic bit that fits somewhere but again not clear. The actual adapter is a nice bit of machinery and typical shimano quality."

Does the job with no fuss
Pros: Rugged, High Quality, Lightweight, Good Fit
"Easy to fit, all the bolts and stuff come with it. Perfect if you're interested in attaching your brake caliper to the rest of your bike (which you probably are). They're pretty good value too, which is nice."

Does what it says it does.
Pros: High Quality, Good Fit
"This caliper adapter works well.
It fit my bike like a charm.
My only comment might be that the description could include images to show you the difference between all the options."

Functional
Pros: Great Value, High Quality, Good Fit
Cons: Limited Color Choices
"Not as pretty as the Hope versions but never the less just as functional, comes with the mount bolts and fitted exactly as it should. Shimano might be "The Evil Empire" of the bike world but their products always work. Someone should tell these people to bring them out in different anodised colours"

Needs spacers
"It's good value but just check the height of the caliper. I used it together with shimano discs and calipers but the pads were running too low on the disc. I used three small washers under each caliper bolt and they work fine"

Ideal for purpose intended for
Pros: Durable, Attractive, High Quality, Rugged, Adjustable, Lightweight, Good Fit, do the job
Cons: misleading instructions
"This bit of kit is ideal if you for example want to upgrade your GT Avalanche Expert forks from Tora to Reba Race, as I did. Instructions are inaccurate but with a little 'common' sense fits a treat (check your pads are lined up with disc correctly), instructions guide you to place adjustment washers incorrecly causing pads to brake on disc arms!"

Does what an adapter should
Pros: Durable, Good Fit, Great Value
Cons: Limited Color Choices
"Very simply this does what exactly you would expect it to do. Shame no pimp colours but it sets brakes up to the relevant rotor size with all holes lining up nicely."

Pros: Good Fit, Great Value
"I asked at Leisure Lakes (Bury) about one of these after swapping out my OEM forks for RS Reba Race they told me I'd need a Hope adaptor and a bigger rotor £30+ looked on Wiggle £7 inc postage BARGAIN!!"
