Has anyone running a disc brake SON 28, had any problems with the clearance between the caliper and the spokes?
"A word of warning though - the SON 28 6-Bolt disc leaves less clearance between the brake caliper and the spokes than any other hub I have seen. I had to change from a 160mm rotor to a 180mm in order to prevent the spokes catching on the caliper."
Yes I've had this happen. Son 28 SL Centerlock +Trp Spyre wont clear my spokes.
Oh.
Are Centrelock spaced different to 6-bolt and is it safe to shim a 6-bolt rotor?
I'm building a bike for someone, so "suck it and see" isn't really an option, so I need to find a known safe option.
FWIW I think they updated Spyre to thin out the spoke side lever arm for better clearance. Think it was a running change.
