I’m putting an older group set onto a new Flanimal 5.0 frame set and the brakes I have are shimano post mount. I ordered the shimano SM-MA-R160P/D adaptor but it interferes with the slider/brake mount assembly. The interference is minor, I think I could relive some material from the adaptor, but before I do that I wanted to make sure there wasn’t an adaptor that actually fit correctly.
has anyone else seen this issue?
You will need our off the back slider + your adapter in order to properly run post mount brakes on Flaanimal:
Thanks for the response Steve.I missed this point and now reading the Flanimal tech paper again, I see it. Looking at the image in the link you posted, that looks to be a flat mount brake, so with the adaptor I would assume a post mount brake would be rotated even further around (clockwise) the center of the wheel? I am understanding the mounting set-up correctly. Any chance there is an image of a Flanimal with a post mount brake available to view?
