I am just assembling my 250W front wheel kit I got from electricBikeConversions.co.uk - all seems to be working, but I have one problem.
I have shimano BR-M395 Hydraulic brakes on the bike and I switched to a 180mm rotor, but the spokes on the wheel are just clipping the edge of the calliper. I have another bike with M595 brakes on it, and they are basically the same profile and have the same issue.
I'm wondering if anyone knows of reasonably priced callipers that are slimmer on the spokes side? There is only a few mm in it ...
If I went up to a 200mm rotor the existing brake may fit, but I am not sure if putting such a large rotor on the front is a great idea?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
