Discs Standard size, over size, narrow track ?? calipers depends which PFM discs you have


OR if you mean Pads then use NON Sintered type

If they are Narrow track then you may need the PFM calipers. measure the pad area of one of the pads in your current calipers. if they're 25mm then you could get some adaptors made to fit with the discs.


A picture would be helpful

so, just to be clear, you are saying the adaptors need to resemble the A-frame? :biggrin

I will be on the look out for some pfm cast disc outer sections in the near future, as mine are slightly worn, they aren't mega money, I think £90 each side. as malc says, if they're narrow track, nissin caliper won't work as well because of the lesser contact patch.
