I should note that Kinesis included 160mm front and 160mm rear flatmount to post mount adapters in the box with my frame and @bertocq's as well. I went out and bought a 140mm adapter whilst berto sweet-talked them into sending him one for free. Guess we were both 'early adopters', I don't know what they provide in the box now.
