    To true the disc you tighten it loosely spin the wheel then pull brake, this will centralise the rotor then nip it up

    I have a 67 lb fat tire folding ebike and was about to go from 160mm to something larger, when I read that you have to check with the manufacturer because there is the potential to snap the fork due to too much braking power. Did you consider this? Ever had a problem of too much braking power? I actually checked with the mfr in China and they told me not to go larger than 160 mm. My current brakes are insufficient going downhill and howl like the dickens with prolonged usage. I have to do something.

    Wow. I haven’t had any issues and I do nail them hard just for fun. Snapping the forks shouldn’t be an issue unless they’re very poorly made in which case I wouldn’t feel safe riding them. My brakes and my forks are holding up great. If you do decide to try them, I hope it goes well for you and that the forks don’t snap.

    @@ProZacksProjects Thanks for that. I've decided that it's because my eBike weighs 70 lbs. Probably not an issue for the lighter bikes. I went with enlarging the rotor on the rear wheel from 160mm to 203mm. I don't think the frame is as vulnerable as the fork.

    They're still holding up perfect. The only downside is that l accidently sprayed some penetrating oil and it got on the front rotor. Aside from that, they lock up very well. It takes no effort to put it up on the front wheel.

    I`m wondering, I have a polygon xtrada 6 and it has a SUNTOUR XCR32 LO-R, 120MM, and it says in the user manual that a "flat mounted" this fork will only support a 160mm rotor which for me is just not enough as I am a little fatty lol, will I have any issues fitting a 203 in the front and 180 in the back ?

    That’s an excellent question. I would recommend buying a 203mm adapter and see if the mount and caliper fit. It should but if not, you can send the mount back.

    My bike is a 26” so you should be fine. If you look for caliper adapters for 160mm to 203mm you should find some. There’s a lot on Amazon.
