Avid Disc 203 vs 160 mm mounting

Hi,

I have a Marzocchi dirt jumper 3, and i plan to put an Avid ball bearing disc brake on it. I would prefer to put the 203 mm version, over the 160 mm version, but are the mounting brackets the same?

Clearly the calipers would have to be 21.5 mm farther from the hub on the 203 mm version, but does it still fit the standard brake mount?

Has anyone mounted on of these on a marz. dj3 (with normal axles, Not the qr20 thingies) ?

Cheers,
-Nick Baer

Hey, for all those reading this, I got a reply from the Avid Tech department:

Hello Nick,
You will only need the Avid 203mm IS adapter bracket - no slop will be
experienced. You may order from speedgoat.com or from Avid at
303-762-9353.
Thanks,
Dan
