Hi all,
I have a centerlock hub I'm trying to use to replace my 6-bolt wheel, 6-bolt Avid rotor with BB5 brakes. I thought it would be easy, I purchased an adapter (admittedly one of the cheapest I could find) only to find it's such an incredibly flimsy design when it could be so simple. It seems the only resistance to the braking force on the rotor is about 1 mm of headless screws sitting proud of the adapter, on which the rotor sits, and it doesn't seem like it would take much for the screws to work loose. I don't trust this at all, and the shimano adapter, well why of course you cannot even tighten it with the normal shimano lockring tool, you have to purchase another tool. No thanks.

Now thinking it's safer to buy a centerlock rotor, but the non-expensive ones are all shimano and old forum posts mention these are not compatible with Avid brakes. Does this still hold true with more recent designs, or can anyone recommend a centerlock rotor below £20 that is compatible with BB5 brakes?

Any input would be very much appreciated - thanks,

Isy
