Wheelset upgrade
I'm currently running a set of Mavic Aksium discs on my Felt F4x. They are the stock wheels and are equipped with 6-bolt Shimano rotors. I found a set of wheels that are setup with Shimano centerlock rotors, and come complete minus a cassette.
Wondering if there would be any issues running these wheels on my bike. I'm running TRP Spyre mechanical disc brakes.
Please confirm

You'll need center-lock rotors or if you want to keep your 6 bolt rotors, you'll need an adapter. They should just drop right in and the spacing should be the same. Of course, you'll need to adjust your calipers to micro-adjust to your new rotors but its not that difficult. Lots of info online on how to do this.
