  • I have some trp spyres and a shutter precision dynamo hubbed wheel. Every now and again the edge clips one the spokes in my wheel. The clearance between the spokes and the caliper is pretty slim at the best of times.

    I know one solution is to move to hydro so I'd have slimmer calipers but £££££

    If I add some spacers/washers between the disk and my hub so that my caliper can move further away will I die?

    Or put spacer on the caliper instead and adjust the pads.

    Would that be a negative shim? IS brakes mount on the wheel side of the fork tabs. Post mount have oval holes, but I'd imagine @root is already at the limit of that adjustment.

    A bigger rotor and a suitable caliper mount adapter would be one way to get the caliper away from the spokes.
