I have a 01' Trek 4500 that I've setup as an SS, I want to put Avid mechanicals on it, but the 160mm mounting hardware for the rear doesn't match up with the frame on the 4500. Is there an adapter I need to mount the disc brake mounting bracket too. If so where can I find one?

Thanks

if you're chain stay has 2 threaded holes, this is a 22mm hayes mount, some brakes will fit on this with an adapter, but not to likely. all you can use is the hayes 22mm hydraulic caliper.

You might have to get the adapter for it, your Trek dealer should have it. ON THE OTHER HAND I have what I believe is an 02 4300 that doesn't have any way to mount a disk.
