• No, that was a pic with the 160mm rotor that I sent to Kinesis asking for WTF they where thinking while advertising the frame as "160 compatible" and including a 160mm rear adapter in the box. They sent me a free TRP 140 rotor and adapter, but no clarification about what went wrong (design or welding). The new 140 rotor gets enough clearance.

    Tried another hub? Could be your hub having the rotor further towards the NDS than the hubs they tested / designed with.

  • Yep, with some Giant wheels from my girl's Avail and unbranded rotors, but @TurtleRecall was the first to notice the problem in his own Kinesis with DT swiss r24db and shimano rotors after finding some heavy rubbing in the inside of the chainstay. So 3 wheelsets and rotors combinations. I tend to think that its a bad production batch... but still no official response.
