Overview

The Avid 2019 Disc Brake Mounting Bracket is a purpose-built adapter that bridges the gap between International Standard (IS) frame and fork mounts and post-mount disc brake calipers. With a 20mm offset, it positions your caliper at the correct alignment for a 180mm rotor on the front wheel or a 160mm rotor on the rear, making it a practical solution for riders upgrading rotor sizes or fitting calipers to IS-equipped bikes.

Constructed to handle the demands of disc braking forces, the bracket comes with stainless steel mounting bolts for corrosion resistance and long-term reliability. Installation is straightforward — bolt the bracket to the IS mount on your frame or fork, then attach your post-mount caliper to the bracket. It is a small, inexpensive component, but getting the right bracket is essential for proper caliper alignment and safe braking performance.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • Includes stainless steel mounting bolts so no additional hardware is needed
  • Supports both front 180mm and rear 160mm rotor configurations with one bracket
  • Lightweight and low-profile design adds minimal weight to the bike
  • Standard IS-to-post-mount interface provides broad caliper compatibility

👎 Cons

  • Only supports the specific 180mm front and 160mm rear rotor size combination
  • Does not include a rotor or caliper — bracket and bolts only
  • Limited to IS mount frames and forks so it will not fit direct post mount or flat mount bikes
