Review on ๐Ÿ”„ SHIMANO Centerlock to 6-Bolt Rotor Adapter Black - Efficient Conversion for Any Size by Adam Matthews

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good adaptor. but beware

This worked great for fitting a 6-bolt Ashima rotor to the rear of my wife's Mavic Crossmax SSC SL centerlock wheels. The rotor was perfectly centered and I didn't have to adjust the caliper at all NOTE FOLLOWING 1) The adapter only moves in one direction. So unless it slides straight onto the lungs, DO NOT TAKE THE POWER. turn it to the other side. 2) The lock ring does not use normal Shimano cassette lock ring tool. A Shimano TL-FC3 special tool is required. This is the bottom bracket tool. I have a few. You can use PARK BBT-69.2 (I have). I just used the original snap ring from their former XTR rotor. I used a regular cassette snap ring tool to get the correct 40Nm of torque. I got lazy and didn't dig deep enough in my bike magic box to find the BBT-69.2. Can't handle Shimano.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • A few minor things
