The straggler doesn't accept a 180mm rotor unfortunately, which is what I need.
The disc trucker fork does though, and has the correct offset, but is only 390 AC, so 11mm shorter. Better than 18mm shorter though!
Why 180mm? If you need more power, could you not use the money to invest in new brakes instead? Or even rotor, pads, cables etc.
I like 180 on the front as the bike is heavy-ish, often a bit loaded up with extra weight, and I find 180 with spyres comforting!
Probably more importantly though is that we want to share various wheelsets and mine all have 180mm rotors on!
